Resolved Questions / [SOLVED] Communicate between actors

« on: February 07, 2012, 11:13:27 am »

SOLVED
Was not aware of "for each actor type"


I am having a problem determining which code blocks to use to do the following:

Behavior on an actor tells another actor to play a specific animation. 

So for example an actors health level dips below 50% tell another actor (the heart) to play Heart Animation 2.

I am having trouble wrapping my head around it.

Old Questions (from 1.x/2.x) / Re: Help with preventing player from falling off moving platforms

I have had the best luck with tysonmckenzie Ride Platforms.  I used it as is and it attaches to the Player instead of the platform.  I modified his Platform Motion a little bit.  No need for friction.  I didn't change the name of them when i shared so let me know if you use it or not and I will make it private again.

Got it working.  Had to check if the scene was transitioning first and within that check to see if the player is in the region.  Thanks for your help coleislazy.

Setting the fade on scene change to anything but 0 works on device and doesn't work on simulator.  If I set it to 0.5 it works on device but crashes simulator.

Console keeps quitting when I try and run the simulator.  I took the time to actually set up testing on a device and it is working fine now.  Shouldn't the simulator be as accurate as actually testing it on a device?  Thanks for your help!

This works in flash as well, but not iOS.  It crashes the simulator.

I have tried several region based scene switchers and I can't get any of them to work.  Either crashes simulator or just doesn't switch.

Ask a Question / Ad Hoc Question

« on: February 02, 2012, 02:23:44 pm »

Hello.  Yes I am an Apple Newbie.

When I publish to AdHoc, I get an email with the "On your Device?" download option.  How do I distribute this link to the people on the device list?  Do I have to add their Device MAC address in stencyl?  Do I just forward the email to them?

Thanks!!!

Ask a Question / Sticky Joystick

« on: January 31, 2012, 05:50:52 pm »

When I create a blank iOS game, create a player and apply the joystick behavior, everything is working fine.  If I start with the iOS platformer example, attach the joystick, the joystick appears but it stays locked in the middle and the player doesn't move (even if i create a player from scratch).  Is there something I am missing when it comes to activating the joystick?  I disabled all the behaviors for the player except for the joystick and it still stays locked.  Thanks!!!

Game Art / Want to team up for some game building fun??

« on: January 27, 2012, 11:19:55 am »

I just started on this platformer.  I am not a very good pixel artist.  Let me know after looking at if you are interested.  Not trying to make any money...just learning and want to work with a team player.  I took all the tiles from stencyl and want to do something original.

Old Bugs (1.x/2.x) / Can't Assign Behavior

« on: January 26, 2012, 09:08:42 am »

I rebooted, restarted and created a simple actor behavior.  When I assign it, it doesn't show up under the actor behaviors.  Any ideas?
