  • Yes, you can easily save the array in Local Storage, and yes, it works on mobile. Use Array.AsJSON expression.

    You can do this - on game launch check if the key exists in Local Storage. If it does, load the array data from Local Storage. If it doesn't load it via AJAX from your JSON file.

    I have a demo, it saves a dictionary in Local Storage, but it's very similar to saving an array.

  • I can't open your link, it tells me that the file has been removed.

    Make sure the text object is big enough (tall) to fix the text, otherwise it will not be shown. Also, try adding trim expression to remove any possible line breaks from the start of the text. For example:

    Set text to trim(Array.at(1))

  • How do I display prices in my in-game shop? As I understand, I have two options:

    1. Display hard-coded prices in USD. When players click to purchase, they will see a pop-up window from Google Play or Appstore with the price in their local currency.

    2. Display the actual and up-to-date price in local currency. I see this in many popular games and this is obviously the preferred method. I tried testing this, but I couldn't spoof my country. Does ProductPrice(ProductID) expression always return the price with the currency code/symbol? How will it look like for countries which don't use dollar/pound/euro?

    For example, for Russian ruble - will it ‎be ₽ 100, or RUB 100, or Руб 100 ?

  • Yeah, new function parameters work differently, see this video from Ashley:

  • Use two actions, for example - Simulate control Left, Simulate control Up.

  • Here is an example showing how to call JS functions and receive results back in Construct 2 events via callback functions:

    It's much easier in Construct 3, because it supports scripting.

  • Check the console log for errors!

  • A quick google search told me that you can use .stringify(anObject) and JSON.parse(string) to convert objects to strings and back. So convert to a string, set this string to a global variable, save this variable in Local Storage.

  • Try Construct 3

  • You have two options:

    1. Host leaderboards on you own server. You will need a web-server with MySQL database running on it. Search the Tutorials section for words "MySQL", "PHP", there are plenty of examples.

    2. Use one of the online services like Kongregate, GameSparks, Newgrounds, PlayFab, Firebase etc. Again, you will need to do your research, choose which one you want to use, download an addon for it.

  • Learn to use families - add all enemies to a family, remove Pathfinding behavior from individual sprites and add it to the family instead. With the family you will be able to reduce the number of events significantly.

    "Regenerate obstacle map" is only required if you add/remove/move obstacles, which I don't see you doing in your code. If you are only spawning new enemies, you don't have to regenerate the map.

    And if you do need to regenerate the map, just one action is enough, not six.

  • Run Preview.

    In Preview window (not in the Editor window!) press F12 and select Konsole tab.

    Also, try Chrome browser.

  • I tried your project and it works for me, the video is playing.

    How do you preview? Try pressing F12, check if there are any errors in browser console.
