  • I recommend using an invisible "target" helper sprite , and having your mask object move to the target's location.

    If you use a helper object, you have many options, like spawning it in a container with the base object, pinning it, or using the move at angle action to position it.

    By math, the formula to get a point from a set distance and angle from another point is:

    Target.X = Origin.X + (distance/cos(angle))

    Target.Y = Origin.Y + (distance/sin(angle))

    Although you have to make sure not to divide by 0, and sin and cos can definitely end up as 0 so I'm probably missing something there...

    Edit: Brain no worky in the middle of night.

    Target.X = cos(angle)*distance+Origin.X

    Target.Y = sin(angle)*distance+Origin.Y

  • Yes, events no longer process on layouts that are not active, effectively "stopping time" for that layout.

    As others have mentioned, you'll need to add events for the time to "catch up" to current time, by using the expression to find out how much time has passed since you left the layout.

    Another option is to not use layouts in the first place, if possible for your game. You can use layers instead, and hide visibility (and remember to account for controls or input so they do not work on invisible layers). This way, all your "scenes" are actually on the same layout and running, just hidden.

  • It might be a CORS issue.

    The host needs to allow ajax requests from external domains (such as project preview from construct.net) to reply.

    Try to see if it works if you export your project and upload/host it on the same domain website (potato-time.jp). This will bypass any CORS problem.

    Otherwise, if you have admin access to the server or host, you can add

    Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *

    to the server header to allow ajax requests from any domain on the web.

  • What are you trying to do? Https:/ /test.php is not a valid URL.

  • What? The ListRoomState expression has always been available AFAIK. Compare the value ("available", "locked" or "full") to allow for joining or not.

    Alternatively, you can compare ListRoomPeerCount <= ListRoomMaxPeerCount as well.

  • There is often more than one way to go about doing any particular thing, some methods may make more sense for a certain person or project or workflow, so I wouldn't necessarily say pointless.

  • For each new scrollto object/instance you add, spawn or create it at the current viewport center, and tween or lerp it to the destination point. You can use an invisible helper sprite(s) and pin to the destination object after it reaches the destination.

  • Well how do determine who shot it? Usually depends on which control input the shooting... What are you doing to have the bullet come out at the correct location?

  • You'll need one instance of your object in the layout editor somewhere to set defaults. Either destroy the original instance on start of layout, or put it on an unused layout.

  • By what method are you using to position the scroll to location relative to the ship?

    Ed: sorry didn't see you linked the project, I'll check that out.

    Ed2: nm you didn't bundle addons so I can't open it.

    Try setting the scroll to position directly with the system action instead of using a helper object and see if it makes a difference.

    Or set the helper object position manually instead of pin, if you're using that.

  • Try turning pixel rounding off

  • There are various color effects you can use, but this can be rather wasteful of processing power.

    There's also the set color action.
