Ask a Question / ANDROID GAME CRASHES A FEW TIMES BEFORE WORKING

« on: December 09, 2014, 04:24:27 am »

Hi guys, i havent been able to find anything on this topic so i thought i could ask this here.

My android game goes to a black screen for a while before crashing when i install it on my phone.

Does anyone else have this issue?

I dont think it is a RAM issue, i only have  5 actors and very little animation.

Also i have already put them on atlases as and when they are needed so really im quite stumped on this.

I realise this only happens on endless runner games too.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks guys.

« on: October 14, 2014, 11:40:26 pm »

Is it possible to change this tile height and width here?  I cant seem to do it :/ all my tiles at 16 x 16 and I want it so that the scene settings is the same, otherwise it will keep blowing it up to 32x32 when im drawing it :/

I cant seem to find any info on this so im not sure how.



Thanks!

Ask a Question / ACTORS DISAPPEARING RANDOMLY FROM SCREEN

« on: October 07, 2014, 02:24:56 am »

I'm currently having a really weird issue with the Stencyl program.  It was working fine the other day.  But when i tried it today my actors were disappearing without any reason (they are instructed to only kill self once they leave the scene, but they just do it randomly once they hit the middle of the screen). 

The weirder part is that this only happens if I place some other stationary actors on the screen (i.e. the health bar).  If I remove the health bar this error goes away and everything works fine again. 

The game was working perfectly with the healthbar intact just a few days ago and I have not since made any changes to the game.  I have tried running clean project.  restarting stencyl.  changing the image of the healthbar. removing collision bars. nothing seems to work.

The health bar has absolutely no contact with the other actors on screen (i.e. ran collision debug).

I have just so idea whats going on.

Really confused. :/

Has anyone else had this issue?  Just wondering.

Ask a Question / ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCK BANNER

« on: October 06, 2014, 02:01:47 pm »

Hi guys, im trying to make an achievement unlocked banner.   I'm using the always block so that once my actor collects a certain number of items the banner pops up.  However using the always block will create alot of banners lagging the game, even if I use the kill selfblock.

Im just wondering how to just make it pop up once?

Thanks guys!

Ask a Question / ISSUE WITH ON SCREEN BUTTON

« on: September 25, 2014, 05:31:58 am »

Hi guys, I have a problem with the "on screen button" behaviour.  It seems to only work up to two buttons then after that additional buttons just dont work. 
I've tried downloading "on screen button v2" to use for the third button but that didnt seem to work either?  Does anyone else have this issue?   thanks guys!

The buttons are just for the basic run and jump movements of the actors.

Ask a Question / ADMOB INSTALLATION

« on: September 22, 2014, 07:09:13 am »

Hi guys, Im sure this is a question that many people would want to know the answer to but i havent been able to find any support on it.  Probably because it has to do with monetization but, i would really appreciate some help on the matter.  The question is simple, i have already completed my game and it works fine.  But i have just no idea how to integrate the admob banners into the game.  Any response would be really awesome and im sure tons of developers (who are as new as i am) would be dying to know.  Thanks guys!
