Ask a Question / Re: Mac - Fullscreen not working.

It might be this issue: http://community.stencyl.com/index.php?issue=1639.0

You can work around it by setting full screen off and then on again using the block under Game > Screen > Window Size.

Extensions / Re: Debugging Tool [v1.0]

The attached extension needs a separate containing folder to work correctly when imported from Stencyl.  Also when I test on HTML5 I get a FPS reading of 0 (OpenFL bug maybe?)

Gamepad Mappings is the core behavior that can be exported from the example game and imported into yours.  The Test Scene event shows a mapping example but shouldn't be copied directly.

Newgrounds and Kongregate are rating-based so games can get a lot of plays there if they're rated well (generally 3.5 or higher).

I have extensions for both of those sites, but I haven't implemented leaderboards for Newgrounds yet.

I'm assuming you already have an update function that's called each frame, maybe using an event listener?  If so, you could call that function in the Updating event instead.

You could sync your bullet updating with Stencyl's updating, but that would also result in faster updates of 100 per second.

After doing some tests with a sample game I can see that the loading bar works fine in test mode but not when publishing.  If I test the game and then zip/upload the generated files, that also works fine, which means the problem has something to do with the publish game option.  It's unrelated to the Poki SDK since I was testing without it on Newgrounds.

Is sitelock really a giant code? I got this  code from them, but I thought it would be some domains only.

Yeah, just paste the whole thing in there at the place I marked.  It should show up as a single long line but that may depend on the text editor you're using.

Another thing, in POKI's QA tool the loading bar doesn't fill up, it's all black, even the game loading. Is this normal?

My games load quickly enough that I don't really notice the bar, but I have read about the loading bar not working for published HTML5 games.  I'm not sure what's going on there.

Ask a Question / Re: Can you add a CSS file to an extension

« on: November 28, 2019, 06:58:41 am »

You can use the template tag which will replace the default template with the one in the extension.
<template path="templates" />

Ask a Question / Re: HTML5 scale mode

« on: November 27, 2019, 07:53:29 pm »

The game doesn't fill the screen because the aspect ratio stays the same and the game can't extend beyond the window.  I'm not sure how you would do what you're trying to do.  I tested the set screen size block but it had no visual effect.

Does <window resizable="true" /> in OpenFL Settings not work for HTML5 on mobile browsers?  Note that the website you're hosting the game on actually has to change the window size for the game to resize itself.

At some point the controls code for Stencyl was changed and it no longer supports multiple controls having the same key.  I'm not sure if that's the problem you're having though.

If there was a way to detect mouse scroll on Flash, I would do that for the hotbar (and shift-scroll for tools).

Have you seen this extension yet? http://community.stencyl.com/index.php/topic,31772.0.html
