  • Hello, detailed info

    1) Click on the setting(gear) button, then close it. Repeat the steps, 4-5 times or even more. (This is from dev side)

    2) By multi touch, I mean.. use 2-3 fingers to rapidly tap on the pieces below. As if you are playing a piano. The pieces end up with the wrong size + part of the pieces overlaps each other. (Most players won't try to break the game that way, but I will •_•, hehe)

    3) By restart, I mean. Close the game, and launch it again on your phone. While your logo is still playing.. keep tapping (multiple times) exactly where the buttons will appear in a few sec.. e.g in middle on the screen. After your logo ends, the gameplay will be launched even if my credit is 0)

    About the crash, it might have happened, bcz your leaderboard was taking time to open, so I might have clicked the other leaderboards few times, then "home" during that delay.

    I was free today, hence the time to test your game. Not sure I'll be that free soon.

  • When using tokenAt() to compare.. you need to use int() or str() in some cases, else you might be comparing a string to a number and this will not work.

  • Hello, cool game!

    Minor issues:

    1) Every time you click on the setting button, it keeps shrinking

    2) Multi touch on the pieces below in-game will break their size

    3) I'm out of credits, yet if I restart your game and rapidly click on the buttons, it will actually load the gameplay

    4) What if i have a bad connection? Are there no way to get credits except via ads?

    5) I got a crash on the leaderboard page, I dont know how

  • So I've been creating small test projects with timelines. I have an object A with some sprites as its children.. and I created multiple timelines with those, namely timeline X and timeline Y on a test project.

    Note that there's only 1 instance of object A in the test project.

    But when I'm satisfied with the animation and try to copy those test timelines on my current project... it creates 2 instance of the object A and each one of them has their own children.

    If I play timeline X, only 1 object A will play and the other will play for timeline Y only.

    But I wanted them to be like my test project... meaning only 1 instance of object A and its children playing for timeline X then Y.

    Now, I have to manually swap instances on the timeline Y, so that it picks only the instance from the timeline X while I delete the redundant ones (the duplicate object A and its children).

    But... is this normal? Or am I copying and pasting it wrong?

    Okay, I understand now. So it's more about how C3 handles the creation/loading of the objects.

    I'll stick to this like before... "The easiest solution is to place the object on the layout, and destroy it on startup"

    Thanks.

    Hello, my issue is the render time before we can paste on the drawingCanvas object. I have noticed that when the object is on a grave layout and will be created on a new layout via code... it takes few m/s before I can paste it on the drawingCanvas. This is worst on low/mid end devices (Tested on J7, A30 and few others).

    1st solution is to add it to the layout itself but having too many objects will increase the image memory on low end devices. Right now I have approx 15 tiles. Later I might have 30 or even 50, so this solution is not the best.

    2nd solution is to use wait 0.1s if there's none of the sprite/tile on the screen. Or use "wait for previous actions" when creating and pasting... but this doesn't work all the time.

    Anyways... on C2, the canvas plugin was updated by R0J0hound and currently this is fast and works on low end devices without any issue.

    On C3, even though it is not the same plugin... it still is a step down for me, since the waiting time is so much visible on some devices; and players will see unintended items while the wait is in process (yeah even by m/s). The issue below happens when the sprite/tile is in grave layout and this works and sometimes doesn't, because it need to wait for it to render completely. It will work if I use 0.1s but I don't want to.

    I know that Construct 3 can do better. So please check it out.

  • 1) Move the knife above the "texture" sprite

    2) Set the knife's blend mode to "destination over"

  • Alright,

    For the time being, I'll put them in the layout, since it is working fine without any delay.

    I'll still file an issue later on why the Canvas plugin is working better in C2 compared to DrawingCanvas in C3. For Ashley

    Thanks! dop2000

    Hello, I added the action, but it still is not working.

    Yes I need the wait to reduce as much as possible but in my game, it will not be a good idea to set all sprites or tiles on the layout because there are 10-15 sprites and are nearly 400*400px which may affect performance.

    Maybe I did it wrong.

    Or I should do that on start of layout? But still there's too many sprites to be loaded in memory

    In construct 2, there were no such issue using the Canvas plugin. So this looks like a step down to me of how the DrawingCanvas works.

  • So I have a sprite in layout B and I want to create the sprite in layout A via actions so that I can use the DrawingCanvas object to paste it and make a replica visually.

    But since it has not been rendered at all.. I have to wait atleast 0.1s after creating it so that I can paste the sprite. This doesn't happen if the sprite was already in the layout.

    Is there any other way I can create the sprite without having to wait because there're a lot of sprites and I cannot set them all on the layout.

  • The way Superxonic did it seems to work fine on my PC.

    The enemies going through the wall is due to their rotate speed being slightly low. I had to set it to 500-600 and everything seems to work good.
