  • Gonna need more information. Also the title doesn't really match the post?

  • Try Construct 3

  • When the player dies you can set the platform behaviour to disabled and play the death animation.

  • You could use a variable to toggle the on/off. You could use on button clicked : toggle boolean, where the boolean is an instance variable on the image object. Then you would have other conditions if object.boolean=true set visible, if object.boolean=false set invisible. Clicking the button then changes between true and false or visible/not visible.

  • On the left side there, the second to last icon that looks like a target is for the image points. Check out its position. If it looks fine then it must be for another reason.

  • Check out the project Kiwi Story that comes with Construct, that is also a platformer.

  • On mobile you can use system "save" it will save everything and then when they launch the app again use system "load".

    Check out this tutorial from Ashley : construct.net/en/tutorials/savegames-11

  • I mean initially in the first post you didn't provide the important load events. I can see now you're loading things from ajax on start of layout while at the same time running a function on start of layout before the data has loaded. But also I mentioned this method is unnecessary, you shouldn't be saving and loading to local storage between layouts to add items to an inventory.

  • It's no use talking about events that we can't see, you should provide all important events. So it's resolved now then, not everything is loading for you.

  • What are you loading with ajax? Maybe it's not finished. Also you are getting the dictionary item within the function which may take time and it could be blank or 0. I suggested getting the dictionary item before you call the function then call it with the dict item as a parameter.

  • What is broken?

  • What I mean about the logic is that it only shows you searching for an empty slot and adding one item to the inventory on start of layout. It sounds like you are storing items to later add to an array, why not add to the array at the moment they are picked up?

    There would only be one global var to store an item as you pick it up, but once you have verified it is working you wouldn't even need that. With the function, if you are making an add item function, you can send the item name through the function as a parameter. Read up on functions if you don't know about this.

    What you've done here is combine looking for the empty row and adding the item into one function which is fine but I don't understand the use of dictionaries and list of items.

    I would advise using debugging with the Browser object, you can log things to the console to check how the function is working.

  • When you paste in, sometimes the origin point shifts. It can be in a different location in each individual frame. Check that it is in the appropriate place in the centre of the sprite's image for each frame, is the first thing I would check.
