  • Scirra doesn't make any plugins for android or ios.

    They only make plugins that are compatible with those plugins.

    They can't fix broken third party plugs.

  • Timescale can't be negative.

    Things can't go backwards.

    It's kind of like waiting for the next feature blog.

  • I'd try looking at the Paster object.

    You'll need to think about how to handle the z settings for when one overlaps another.

  • If it isn't the truth then say so. But if it is, then why are you mad at ME??? I'm just quoting one of the top C2 users and his experiences working with it.

    My bad I guess.

    It's just rather hard to see that your quote, and post was meant to garner something other than disdain.

  • I hear Portal 3 is vr, and comes with a year's supply of air sickness bags.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

  • newt I think he was quoting Aurelien Regard regarding the said contracts. Not his own experience.

    Ah, I thought there might be some useful information rather than just another user trying to take a dump on Scirra for doing something they didn't like.

  • Here's what the developer of The Next Penelope, featured on the C2 site's homepage said about his experience working with Construct 2 and HTML5. http://www.perfectly-nintendo.com/the-n ... -to-wii-u/

    "However, releasing your game on just one platform is a luxury most small developers like me cannot allow themselves. Let’s be clear as water: I missed contracts that would have drastically changed my financial life because of that. No, not because of Construct 2, but indeed because of the HTML5 upon which it is based, and which it depends on. From improbable tweaks to drastic optimization, without counting the help I asked from the gifted programmers I know. I thought I’d find solutions along the way, but despite my efforts, nothing worked well enough to be proud of the result."

    Rather than paste a link to something that's been quoted here many times already, you could tell us all about, and how those contracts that were guaranteed to change your financial situation.

  • I just hope that C3 isnt built on HTML5.

    Um, literally.

  • Instances can only be manipulated in actions when they are picked by a condition, or in an event that they are created.

    Functions specifically break picking which can be useful, but if you need to re pick an object in a function you can pass the objects id, or uid in a function parameter.

    Just remember to use the param to do a comparison to re-pick the object in a subevent of the function.
