Oops, we'll try and get that fixed soon. As a workaround, if you left click an already selected condition, you get popups allowing you to insert a new condition above or below the selected condition, and they work correctly. This works for events and actions as well.

After the Create Object action, add a Sprite4 action and select the Ball tab. Set angle of motion to:

angle(Sprite4.X, Sprite4.Y, MouseX, MouseY)

OK, I've fixed the crash changing layouts for the next build. It was because of the global objects. One-shot mode in the particles object is also fixed.

Insert the mouse & keyboard object, and you can detect if the user has clicked on an object.

Areas of transparency don't count as being able to collide or be clicked on. Are you sure you're not clicking a transparent area?

Finally, you could upload your .cap file so we can take a look.

U and V are called the texture coordinates - they define which point of the texture graphic is associated with that x,y point. This allows you to change which part of the texture is shown at that point - rather than where the point itself lies. I can understand if its confusing though, because so long as the UV point is the same as the XY point, the texture displays undistorted.

#2082656 - by kotakotakota - there's no file attached to this one, was this one of the files that was emailed to me and crashed due to the particles object? If so, I can mark this one as fixed.

#2083035 - this is an example of a useless bug report! There have been a few like this. Pasting in an error message is not helpful. I know what the error messages are because I write them in the source code! I need to know the circumstances that led to this, reproduction steps, and preferably a .cap file that demonstrates the problem reliably. Otherwise, bugs like this will just be closed with no resolution.

one thing i did think though, surely instead of timedelta you can just have whatever constant you wanted?? - then you could change it whenever...

Set the timer FPS to 1, and timedelta will return whatever the time scale is.

^yeah I assumed that override timedelta would give 1/monitor refresh rate, so like 1/60 if your monitor is 60hz etc

Heh, if you want that put on V-sync and turn off the override...

I brought this up before, but to bring it up where it should be, I'd like to be able to set the time override during run time.

Set the timer FPS to 1, and timedelta will return whatever the time scale is.

I'd quite like to be able to define my own functions like faggatron(x)=sin(x*29+x^2)+7*cos(x)

Use the Function Object. You could define Function.MyFunc(x) to mean that.
