  • Hi, is there a way to get a sprite to play an animation after it has been rotated 360 degrees (using "on hold over object")? Thanks in advance.

  • Many thanks plinkie, it's working now. :)

  • Thanks plinkie,

    Unfortunately I don't know how to update the hi-score variable (am still very new to this).

  • Hi plinkie,

    I expect you're right but having gone through the events can't work out what's triggering the loop. I've attached a screenshot.

  • Hi,

    I'm making a game where I want the enemy characters to do a short animation when the player gets a new high score before resetting to their default animations. It almost works except the enemies play the "high score" animation in an endless loop on getting a high score. I'm using "on animation finished > set animation" which has worked before. What am I doing wrong?

  • Many thanks plinkie. :)

  • Hi plinkie,

    Many thanks, it's working now. I didn't copy all of the events over to the correct event sheet.

    Is there a way to reset the high score back to 0?

  • Hi,

    I recently learned how to save + display high scores (still very new to Construct 3), but can only get it to display correctly in-game and not on the title screen, which is where I wanted to put it. The "High Score" text appears, but no number is displayed. How can I fix this?

  • Hi,

    When I try to open my game on Chrome I get the following message:

    What does this mean, and what can I do to fix it? Also, do I need Java installed to play HTML5 games?

  • There is Touch.X and Touch.Y

    you could set a global variable called something like aim or target and update it every tick with

    if mouse mode aim = angle(gun.X,gun.Y,Mouse.X,Mouse.Y)

    if touch mode aim = angle(gun.X,gun.Y,Touch.X,Touch.Y)

    Then fire in that direction ( aim )

    I've been trying to implement this but can't get it to work. Could someone please post a screenshot or similar so I can see how this should look on an event sheet?

  • Thanks. Another issue I'm having is that although the "set angle to Touch.X/Y" works, the player sprite always snaps back to its initial angle once I let go of the mouse button/touch pad. Is there a way to keep it in the angle it was at before the mouse/touch input was removed?

    [EDIT]: Never mind, I added the "Is in Touch" event and it's no longer snapping back to the original position.

  • Thanks for the info WackyToaster. Holding down does allow me to change the position, but the touch controls are still much less precise compared to the mouse. I found using "Is in touch" speeds bullets up a lot, but spawns far too many in one go. Is there a way to reduce this number?

    Also for some reason when I'm using touch controls the player sprite is positioned at an odd semi-upside-down angle - is there a way to fix this?
