  • It depends on how realistic you want this to be.

    You can try Bullet behavior:

    On each collision with the water increase bullet gravity.

    After 2-3 collisions disable Bullet.

  • Yeah, this will work too, thanks.

  • If you have old version of Construct 2, you can do this:

    Unzip CAPX file into a folder.

    Then open .caproj file in Notepad and edit this line:

        <saved-with-version>24600</saved-with-version>

change to your version, for example :
    <saved-with-version>24400</saved-with-version>

  • Sorry if this a silly question, I'm new to physics.

    I need to be able to put two square physics boxes on top of each other, but they keep shaking and sliding.

    Debug mode shows that even when one box is lying on the floor, it never goes into Sleeping mode, its velocity is constantly changing a little.

    This happens when either the box or the floor has Elasticity>0.

    But I want boxes to bounce when dropped, so I need elasticity.

    Is there any way to fix this?

  • You only need the .capx

    Just open it in C2.

  • Nice, thank you!

  • This may be easier to understand:

    myText="Hello, %John%! How are you?"     <-  use % to mark start and end of yellow text.

letter=""

textYellow=0    <-  textYellow=0 means black text, textYellow=1 means yellow text

For i=0 to len(myText)-1
  Wait 0.5*loopindex seconds
  letter=mid(myText, loopindex, 1)
  If letter="%"     
            If textYellow=0  Set textYellow=1    <- next letters will be yellow
            Else Set textYellow=0                   <- next letters will be black
  Else
       If textYellow=0  bbt_dialogue_texte Append letter
       If textYellow=1  bbt_dialogue_texte Append ""&letter&"[/color]"[/code:16o5kby7]

  • See my updated comment above.

  • I'm not sure I understand you.

    When you need to display next letter of the dialog and that letter should be yellow, add this:

    ""&letter&"[/color]"[/code:2dcx5z5p]

Your code could be something like this:

[code:2dcx5z5p]
myText="Hello, %John%! How are you?"     <-   Put symbol % before and after the text you want to display in yellow
textYellow=0  
letter=""

For i=0 to len(myText)-1
  Wait 0.5*loopindex seconds
  letter=mid(myText, loopindex, 1)
  If letter="%" set textYellow=(textYellow=0)    <- this will invert textYellow variable, 0 becomes 1, 1 becomes 0
  Else 
     If textYellow=0  dialogText append letter
     If textYellow=1  dialogText append ""&letter&"[/color]"
[/code:2dcx5z5p]

  • oosyrag, Your solution is so simple and obvious, why didn't I think of it!

    Meteor's collision polygon should be very small for it to work correctly, but still it's a great idea.

    I already made a version with tilemap, so here it is..

  • Thanks, R0J0hound! You rock again!

    Your method works. Although sprites tend to group more towards the right end of the line, but this actually is even better for my game.
