Ask a Question / HTML5 Newgrounds/Kongregate API

« on: February 29, 2020, 09:39:48 am »

I've used the Newgrounds API on flash projects to add medals and leaderboards.... but now flash is dead, slow, and I want to make an HTML5 game that has these features. But they are exclusively on flash, even though Newgrounds has developed the API for HTML5.
So... how do I implement the features? I tried delving into the .js file generated by Stencyl… but it didn´t work

idk if this topic is dead or not... I wanted to try out the miner demo on the stencylforge and it says I don't have the tileapi… from what ive heard, that api has been integrated into stencil, so im assuming there's nothing I can do to try the demo on the newest version of stencil, right?

EDIT:
OK nevermind. for any noob like myself trying this demo out. Delete the full scene. Then, edit the drawings(player, coin and tiles) because theres a bug and after downloading, they are actually blanc.

And btw that "missing tileapi" at the beginning actually means nothing

Im working on a mobile game(will be getting studio for this) and wanted to know if making a variable change over time while your device is turned off.

What Im trying to get out of this is a sort of timer, like the ones in Clash of Clans and every other mobile game that requires you to wait for an hour or so.

I can certainly make  a timer, but if the device is turned on the timer will stop. How can I do this? Is it possible?

Ask a Question / Re: How can I jump further by holding the button for longer?

« on: March 25, 2018, 04:55:45 am »

Use a number attribute that increases as the button is held down, then trigger the jump on release.

See the highlighted bit in the attached image for an example that I made.

Yeah but its on a button release, I want it on a button press

Ask a Question / Re: How can I create this 3d effect?

« on: January 30, 2018, 09:54:13 am »

Are you talking about that bit with the single character turning?

You'd want to create an animation for each possible direction. It would be quite easy if you created your actor in some 3D software, then you could just turn the model and export images of each different direction.

Like this? http://community.stencyl.com/index.php/index.php?topic=49776.msg275559#msg275559

In the video, the guy says "blah blah blah ...  placing lots of 2d objects on top of each other created that cool 3d-looking effect, which we then used in later projects... ".
You can see  there are about 20 actors stacked on top of each other, which creates a 3d effect. the thing is, I dont know how to do it.  How are the 20 actors supposed to be shaped?

Ask a Question / Randomly set controls

« on: January 20, 2018, 06:28:41 am »

Hi. Im trying to have an event that changes the control scheme. So, for example, when the player hits a ball, up is now down, left is right, etc. But I want it to be a random scheme, so in every run its different. Anybody know how to do this?
