you want to create branches above the viewporttop(0)?

if so then just do viewporttop(0) - 100 or whatever

I'm not sure what its actually supposed to look like or do, but it seems to make a randomly generated map for me when i run it.

what are you expecting it to do?

Yes, In construct the term is "picking" an object. It is a way of specifying which particular object or objects you want to apply an action to.

So in your case you would want to do

On start of layout ->

(sub event) System Pick by Evaluate -> Player.name = GlobalVariable -> apply actions

you can "pick" the player by its instance variable "name" or its UID, or a alot of other ways as well.

You could also use the Litetween behavior

on function "fade in"

sprite set target value "opacity" 100

sprite start litetween

it will animate till it reaches 100 based on its property settings (eg: lerp, duration etc)

litetween allows you to specify a "value" as well that be used for anything that needs to change over time.

So you can say something like , set sprite.width to Sprite.LiteTween.Value to use in in circumstances beyond just the litetween basic properties as well

Noncentz705 - Sweet ! Thanks so much! I knew there had to be an easier way of finding it. Does this work if the computer is offline as well?

This was a little tool i wrote for use with the crowdgaming plugin however it might be useful to someone else.

If you need to get the local IP address of your computer running C2 for whatever reason in code

This little tool in adds your local IP address to a txt file and stores it in the same location as where you ran it from.

1) Copy the GetIP.exe file i've included and put it in the same folder as your exported NW.JS project .exe file (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/403350/LocalIP/GetIP.exe)

Then checkout the capx i've included to see how to execute and read the IP into your project.

Edit: Also, if you are Testing using NW.JS for previewing, put the GetIP.exe also in your C:\Program Files\NWjsForC2\win32 folder

There's some new progress on the "getting your local IP address" front

Thanks to Noncentz705 in a different thread, a much simpler cleaner solution has been provided.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/139 ... tIPc2.capx

Old messy method:

I made a tiny exe file that gets the local IP of your machine, then adds it to a txt file and stores it in the same location as where you ran it from.

So. Copy the GetIP.exe file i've included and put it in the same folder as your exported NW.JS project .exe file (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/403350/LocalIP/GetIP.exe)

Then checkout the capx i've included to see how to execute and read the IP into your project.

Now you can tell the controller players which IP to connect to once the main game window starts!

Edit: Also, if you are Testing using NW.JS for previewing, put the GetIP.exe also in your C:\Program Files\NWjsForC2\win32 folder
