  • Hi,

    When I do a preview of the project/layouts and my local browser is lauched with localhost to view the project. What is the internal web root folder on the local machine.

    More particularly, I noticed that a video file when viewed straight out of the project tree, its located in a hidden temp folder: AppData\Local\Temp\capQ4I2IS\Files, along with other files.

    But, my feeling is that this is not the root web folder ...

    any help would be much appreciated,

  • Hi,

    I embedded a video plugin in a layout. When i start the layout directly, then the video plays fine. However, when I load the layout from another layout (after the user presses a button), the video doesn't play.

    I am stumped. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

  • Hello,

    I am interested in making a quiz game very customizable.

    One feature that could be very interesting is the ability to store and load actions and events in event sheets, based on some conditions -- for example, user specific identifiers, and other parameters (skill levels).

    When a layout is loaded, relevant custom events and actions are loaded also.

    The idea is to define events and actions using construct2 UI, and then save them away, per layout, for future context dependent recall.

    What do you think?

  • Thank you for all the responses.

    I am pretty new to JavaScript. The template files don't seem to refer to the base "construct 2 API" library. I was thinking that a reference to the library would be needed to get in an IDE auto-complete working for construct 2 API objects, methods and properties.

    Is this how you guys work?

    thanks,

  • Hi,

    I'd like to explore Javascript programming to better interconnect a quiz game i am working on with a database.

    Is there a IDE that is a good match for developing plugins. Also, is there a way to get autocomplete working with working with C2 API objects, so one can learn more quickly what functions are available.

    Finally, (if i am already at it) can a plugin be loaded automatically for the whole project, once installed. Thats a feature i probably need to get database interconnection working.

    thank you,

    Dan

  • HI Sephrag,

    Did you in the end go with Construct2, and managed to get both world working. Perhaps the way to go is to make more heavy use of javascript and use C2 as a "thin" UI interface.

    If you can events firing in javascript or get functions in javascript called as actions.

    I don't know enough api dev. just yet, but thats one thing that came to my mind.
