  • For example enemyA and enemyB would have the same health and damage

    Not necessarily. The way it's usually done is you add a repository layout where you put one instance of each object - it will be the default instance. Every new instance you create in the editor or in runtime will be copied from that default instance.

    So you can place all enemies and friendlies on that repository layout and configure different hp/damage values for them.

  • In Construct animations are image-based, each frame is a separate image.

    If you are looking for skeletal animation, you'll need to use Spriter or Spine addons:

  • Objects can be in multiple families. If there are any variables that apply to both enemies and friendlies - you can define them on AllEntities family, which contains all objects.

    You will be able to do damage to both with a single line of code:

    AllEntities subtract 1 from HP

    But these variables will not be available in Enemies and Friendlies families. So you can do this:

    Skeleton subtract 1 from HP

    But not this:

    Enemies subtract 1 from HP

  • When the button is tapped, change its opacity.

    Button set opacity to 50

    Wait 5 seconds

    Button set opacity to 100

  • Ah, you are right. There should be an option to reset the tags or something. Did you try to re-create the objects?

    Tag field can contain multiple tags, separated by space. You can add the same tag to all solid objects and set solid filter to this tag (inclusive). Then repeat the exclusion filter for the tags you don't want to be solid.

  • In properties (on the left panel) -> Select mode -> All

  • I still don't fully understand your task, but in any case the code you have is very wrong.

    This whole thing can be done much easier. Decide which color molecule to spawn (a number from 1 to 4). Then, since each color is spawned from a separate image point, you can simply use the color number to spawn a new molecule:

    dropbox.com/scl/fi/0jqup6qr3zuoyfdomsdiz/Moleks.c3p

  • The "overlapping at offset" condition is also used incorrectly.

    You probably need "System Pick overlapping point" instead.

  • The code is quite a mess to be honest. You need to understand how picking works in Construct!

    Once you create/spawn a new Molek instance, it gets automatically picked in all the further actions and sub-events. I outlined all these lines with red - they apply to the created instance only:

    So the sub-event #27 will compare the color value of the newly created instance only, not any of the other existing instances! Which means "Or pick Molek instance 2" condition is moot, because the picked scope only contains 1 instance.

    If you want to compare other instances in a sub-event, you need to use "Pick all" condition first. But then you will need to pick the newly created instance again to change its color variable.

    Can you explain what these particular events 26-27 are supposed to do? And then I may be able to tell you how to fix them.

  • i want to include it.

    I dont want it to be inclusive.

    I don't understand.

  • It's a known problem, and not only on iOS. All devices render texts differently.

    Try another vertical alignment setting. Make sure the text is using the font that is included in the project. If it doesn't help, replace it with a sprite font.
