Ask a Question / Re: Why it has to build the ENTIRE game while I just want to test a scene?

« on: Today at 05:06:20 am »

Tools > Game > Clean Project might solve this issue. If that doesn't do it, create a blank game with only two scenes (give them different background colros), and generate your logs after hitting test scene and confirming that the scene is not the first one loading.

As a work around, set your desired scene to be the starting scene and test the game.

Ask a Question / Re: Detailed instructions on expanding the dialog?

The discord server is more active nowadays, so it's best to ask there: https://community.stencyl.com/index.php/topic,48592.0.html

And alternatively there are other dialog options you can consider beyond the extension: https://luyren.itch.io/luyrens-cutscene-resource-pack

Try with a blank game: only one scene and no actors.

The discord server has more active users, easier to get help there nowadays: https://community.stencyl.com/index.php/topic,48592.0.html

This could be any number of things, there's not much to go with from the information you provided. I suggest re-exporting the game to HTML5, reuploading and making sure all settings are set to show the game as HTML5.

Update Stencyl and report back, generating and posting your logs if it happens again. The current public version is 4.1.4, not 4.1.0.

Ask a Question / Re: Convert list contents to a single string for comparison.

« on: December 16, 2024, 10:47:01 am »

Code: [Select]

text attribute
for each item in list
--text = text & item
Text will have all the items as strings concatenated.

Ask a Question / Re: List not being sorted correctly?

« on: December 09, 2024, 03:14:38 pm »

To sort from lowest to highest in pseudocode, assuming a list with only numbers:

Code: [Select]


newList = create new list
repeat number of items on list
--index = 0
--testNumber = 999
--for each item on list:
----if testNumber >= item and not item on newList:
------testNumber = item
------targetIndex = index
----increment index by 1
--If not item on newList:
----add [targetIndex from list] to newList
Something like that, newList should have all items sorted by the end of it. I also recommend you join the discord server, as there are more people there to help you: https://community.stencyl.com/index.php/topic,48592.0.html

Ask a Question / Re: How do I randomly place actors on a grid without them colliding?

« on: November 10, 2024, 12:28:37 pm »

Code: [Select]

Set row count to 0
For each item in columns (this is the primary list, items becomes your rows list).
-set blue count to 0
-set red count to 0
--for each item in item (the first item block now contains individual cells).
---if item = 1, increment blue count
---if item = 2, increment blue count
-if blue count >= 6, call an event to clear the column, setting the cell values to 0.
-increment row count
Rough pseudocode, checking for full rows. If you can implement that, you'll be able to expand it to check for columns as well.

One list with 6 items. Each item is itself a list with 6 more items (call these one cells). Each cell can have a value of 0 (empty), 1 (blue block) or 2(red block). You'll be manipulating numbers when you move the rows and colors, not actors.

The actors are displayed on top of that, either by animtions on based on the cell value, or by sliding the created actors as you move the rows.

This would be the base for my implementation.

Update to Stencyl 4.1.4 starters.
Use print blocks to make sure your code is executing. If it's indeed executing, you mighthave to check permissions on your website in order use a post request.
