  • Oh, so now they work just like event sheets do, which I didn't realize. So sorry for that and thank you so much as always.

    Edit: Now that I think of it, I think this was because of the way I replaced the main script when creating the new project. After setting the main script, we are back to the same error that started this thread. So no, the "weird typescript setup" wasn't the problem.

  • Oh ye, makes sense. Thanks.

  • It is exactly the same error, but here you go: drive.google.com/file/d/1b-xocb2KfHf4UnULT8djQ7MeogYRCdWQ/view

    Do you also get the same error on your end? It seems like something related to my browser to me, idk.

  • So, I've created a new project. It won't give me errors anymore but now runOnStartup() just isn't called... What?

    Edit: It all appears to still come down to that "Failed to load resource: net::ERR_HTTP2_PROTOCOL_ERROR".

  • Am I dumb or is there no javascript gamepad plugin implementation done yet?

  • Thanks for the reply again Ashley. Yes, I was expecting construct to overwrite the js files and I had no idea I could just delete them from the project and have it compile them somewhere hidden. I was messing with the new built-in editor and trying to edit ts from construct, but I mainly use vs code and now can't figure out how to configure it to work with vs code handling the ts again.

  • My project is really minimal since I've just created it. Here it goes:

    drive.google.com/file/d/1b-xocb2KfHf4UnULT8djQ7MeogYRCdWQ/view

    I'm pretty sure the code is alright, and I'm so sorry for wasting your time if the problem is as simple as such an oversight from me.

  • Thank you for the response Ashley, but it did not work.

    To be clear, I am able to preview other projects.

  • I've just created a new project and realized construct has a couple new options when right clicking the scripts folder, related to typescript. I suspect I'm misunderstanding them, because my main script will fail no matter what. I'm trying to use typescript, edited thru vs code (as I've been doing for a while). I'm getting this on the console:

    Failed to load resource: net::ERR_HTTP2_PROTOCOL_ERROR

  • I couldn't find how to get/set tilemap as/from json thru script, does anyone know how? I feel like either tilemap is missing some scripting features or the tilemap scripting documentation is missing some features. I also couldn't find how to use brushes, if that is possible.

  • So, I may be dumb (and that's why I figured I should post this here before filling out an issue report on github), but here goes a compilation of minor "issues", so to speak, I've been having with scripting:

    1. <IWorldInstance>.setAnimation("") is not recognized by the typescript definitions, and I therefore have to write (<IWorldInstance> as any).setAnimation("") for it to work.

    2. I could not find any documentation on accessing image points thru javascript/typescript. <IWorldInstance>.getImagePointX(<name or index>) won't compile because TS thinks it doesn't exist, but then again (<IWorldInstance> as any).getImagePointX(<name or index>) works fine. If anything, I think <IWorldInstance>.getPosition() should probably support image points as arguments.

    3. I could not find any documentation on using tilemap brushes thru script.

    Please tell me for which of those I'm just being dumb, for which I should file a bug report, and for which I should file a feature request.

    Thanks!

    Edit:

    Ok, I've just discovered that:

    1. setAnimation() and getImagepointX() are from the ISpriteInstance type.

    2. the method getImagePoint() gets both axis.

    Sorry for that

  • Oh ye that makes sense. I've just filed a bug report then. Hope you can fix it, and thank you as always.

  • Alright, thanks for the clarification Ashley!

  • Oh ok I will, I thought it might be a simple fix on my end so that's why I didn't.

  • I'm trying to create an object from a family by it's name:

    const newObject = runtime.objects["name"].createinstance(<parameters>);

    This works, but I wanted to do so using a name stored in a variable:

    let objName = "name";

    const newObject = runtime.objects[objName].createinstance(<parameters>);

    TypeScript won't let me do this because it is afraid "objName" won't be a valid value.

    How should I go about this then?

    Thanks in advance.

    edit:

    this works, but I'm not sure how good of a solution it is:

    let objName = "name";

    const newObject = (runtime.objects as any)[objName].createinstance(<parameters>);
