  • If you are familiar with Rex's pathfinding plugins you can use his "Edge" plugin in conjunction with his pathfinding plugins to create impassible walls/edges.

    For my Kairosoft type game i'm working on i used the method R0J0hound describes where i did my own with events where each tile has a token list of the neighbour tiles it connects to so people can only walk on the roads. This is good because it means i can also do things like teleporters since tiles can have neighbours they are not physically next to.

  • I have a 16:9 aspect ratio iMac with resolution set to 1920 x1080, and for my game i also use a 16:9 aspect ratio size. I want to use pixel art so its crisp so i set fullscreen mode to "letter box integer scale" yet when i run the game i get black bars. If i use the browser object and set it to go full screen i still get black bars.

    The only way i can get the game to cover the screen with crisp graphics (not using fullscreen quality high) is to set full screen mode to "scale outer" and set the canvas size to the window size. This seems to work well for me since the game is designed so the hud and things can handle different screen sizes but i wonder if there is any pitfalls to doing this? I haven't noticed any drop in fps.

    Also why won't "letter box integer scale" work as it should, as in fill the screen at this size and aspect ratio?

    Thanks.

  • You can toggle a number variable which is either 0 or 1 using,

    abs(variable -1) or 1-variable

  • If you use the distance function then combine it with "switch Not outside layout" condition so the distance function only runs when switch is on screen, as it can be a cpu hog if doing it on lots of object (if you have lots of switches).

  • Thank you Mikal for your hard work in bringing this great fx to c3!

  • Hi, I'm interested in using this fx, but reading the c2 thread it appears it doesn't work when exported? Is this correct for c3?

    [quote:3bisupur]Effects like seamless screw up when exported as it doesnt take into consideration that construct bundles images into sprite sheets. Something similar could be happening with Skend.

    Thanks.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to make the examples.

    Is there any way to make them orbit at a 45 degree angle. I tried rotating the layer but i need parallax on it which messes things up.

    Thanks.

  • Hi,

    I have unbound scrolling set on my game with scale outer.

    What is the best way to set a background image? I have a bottom layer with 30% parallax, I thought the tile background object to save memory but i'm not sure how to position and resize it to always cover the layout.

    Thanks.

  • Nicely done, I like the out of focus background. Very soothing, I only wonder if you can make the growing more smooth and look less like discrete objects?

    Alpha Threshold shader could be applied to the individual segments to make them meld into one perhaps, and if you want it textured you could use "force own texture" and destination out to apply sprite image over it.

  • Has any one converted Somebody shaders over to c3?

    I'm in need of "seamless".

    Thanks.
