The way I have always done it is:

1) Download the extension
2) In Stencyl go to Settings > Extensions > Install Extensions
3) Point it to your download location
4) Restart Stencyl

Hope this Helps

Extension Ideas / Re: On-line ScoreBoard

« on: February 28, 2015, 08:28:46 am »

Hey M.E. thanks for your quick reply.

I followed your suggestions and my leaderboard is now working   How would I go about adding a second leaderboard for my games additional game mode?  Is it as simple as changing the level # on the 'Set Score' block & 'Request List' block  to a different number?

thanks again!

Extension Ideas / Re: On-line ScoreBoard

Hey all,

First off thanks for the extension; it's great!  I currently am only getting a single score back from the server and it's an old outdated score.  No matter what I do, I only get that score back.  When I log into my app as another user, I am only able to see the score from the other account.  Attached is a screenshot; any help would be greatly appreciated!

Ask a Question / Re: HOW TO enable back button on android device

« on: February 25, 2015, 06:50:41 am »

Hey,

1) If you go to Settings > Mobile > UserInput > check "Override Back Button"
2) Next go to Settings > Controls > add a new control named 'BackButton' and bind it to the ESC key
3) Create a new Event -> AddEvent > Input > Keyboard > and choose 'BackButton'
4) As far as making the Android back button exit the app; I believe you'll have to do this with code since there isn't a pre-made block to do this.  Read about how to do that here :  http://community.stencyl.com/index.php/topic,22625.msg174192.html#msg174192

Are you using a Game Attribute for the score?

Guides & How-To's / Re: Help with Facebook/Twitter

Hey All,

First of all,  thanks for the info! Twitter is working perfectly.

I seem to be having a bit of trouble getting Facebook to work.  I am always directed to the sign on page and once i sign in i get a blank screen with a red error banner. 

I created a new Facebook app so I have the app ID but am a little confused as to the link and picture url to include (I obviously don't use Facebook very much).  Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Ask a Question / Re: Help, how to attach a shield

« on: February 13, 2015, 07:01:06 am »

The way I got this to work was to create two game attributes  to  hold your players x and y values.  Set the game attributes to your players x and y values (I did this in a simple actor behavior that i attached to my player).  Then in a scene behavior do:

always
     set [ x ] to [x of player] for [shields]
     set [ y ] to [y of player] for [shields]

Hey All,

I've been working as a Software Engineer (iOS & Android) in the US for the past year now.   My background is mainly in Java, C#, C++, Objective-C, and web-based technologies, so when I heard about Stencyl about a month ago and i was intrigued.  I'm excited to start some side projects and see what happens.  If you wanna know anything more just ask!

Later!
