Thanks, but I dont see how requesting one time per session would work if you switched between frames? I mean unless the whole game is made in one frame, I would still need to request items info every time I enter a frame that has some kind of an IAP shop. (or purchasing\restoring won't work)

Making the whole game in one frame now after it is already finished or late in development is kinda hard and time consuming...
If this is not what you exactly meant, please let me know, as the IAP request problem has a very high crash rate which increases more and more with every request.

if it happens often enough, could you get a crash report for fernando to take a look at, as this is something that should definitely be fixed if its actually a bug.

on windows runtime the multi touch new touch is not cleared when jumping frame, resulting in a constant frame jump cycle when holding down the button.

Global values/strings only show there if you name them, have you done this?

your right it worked, is this a new thing as i've never run into this before?

either way, thanks man ;D

I installed the latest fusion build and now my debugger global values are gone,
i tried to reset the debugger window settings by opening regedit, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Clickteam\Fusion Developer 2.5\Debugger and deleting the sp, wp and xh values.

but the problem is still there

a cool feature would be if you were able to open .anm files in the picture editor and it automatically puts all the stuff into all the animations.
it would make the .anm format even more useful

I'm trying to do this to safe information from one frame then retrieve it on another, if that helps

i'm sure if the string is a global string, you should just be able to retrieve the string information on any frame, you shouldn't even need to save it

nice work dude

i'm always interested to see how well fusion can replicate the classics.

let's hope konami don't hit you with a cease-and-desist XD

Where's your solution?

This is the most simple way.

thanks dude, just what i needed

(unlike the guy above with no answer after complaining about threads with no answer XD)

the dark mode makes me feel like fusion 2.5 is looking just like fusion 3

i'm waiting for the secret reveal that what we are currently using actually IS fusion 3 XD

Another little quality of life change that would be nice is to make the start loop cursor be inside the quotation marks so you can directly type in the loop name without having to click first

p.s. maybe we can get rid of the quotation marks all together (at least in F3) as i don't see why they need to even be there lol

BUG: when you click jump frame with a multitouch object, it jumps multiple frames instead of just one

i wasn't thinking of it for collision, just in general trying to simply pass a variable from one active to another duplicate active

i was hoping maybe something along these lines could be added

I believe the problem is something like this. If Fred and Dino collide, we can easily make them damage each other by subtracting Fred's attack damage from Dino's HP, and vice versa:

But if we have 2 Freds who hit each other, it's not so easy. We can't just do this...

...because Fusion will subtract each Fred's attack damage from himself, instead of from the other Fred. If both Freds happen to have the same attack damage, then it's ok. But if one of them happens to be stronger than the other, then the wrong damage calculations will occur. I'm sure there are methods to do this, but it's probably relatively tricky and inconvenient. Because we're talking about extracting the correct values from the correct instances of an object, I guess Bonehead's ears pricked up when they saw that there was a new "Instance Value" feature, hoping that it was going to solve this problem.

THIS!!!! >:D

I have been wanting a simple 1 event solution for this forever, it's number one on my feature request wishlist

i tried to do it by putting 2 qualifiers on the active and hoping i could go....

if ID of qualifier1 = 1
& ID of qualifier2 = 2

then copy value from qualifier1 to qualifier2

but unfortunately, it scoped one of the objects away >__<

i also was hoping that the new instance addition was going to solve this, but no luck there

if there was something added to make this just as simple as it is when detecting 2 different actives it would improve the whole fusion way of coding in an unbelievable big way!

i still have faith that one day we'll get it, especially after seeing all the amazing thing in this latest update that we thought we might never see

SHINBAXTER on iOS you mean, right?

sorry i forgot to specify, thanks for mentioning

yh, this is an iOS bug

BUG: shaders appear to be broken, if you put a shader effect on an active, then all other actives without shader effects on them mess up

BUG: there is a bug on ios where the fullscreen antialias sometimes turns off if you do certain things like

- minimise the game app and go onto camera app and then minimize the camera app and go back into the game

- sometimes when recording a video of your game it triggers the antialias to switch off wen the recording starts

it causes the lines on my game to go all jagged and ugly & i realized that all my recently updated apps now all have this problem, which they didn't have when i released them a few years ago,

i don't know exactly what build version the bug started, and it's hard to pinpoint, coz there where no dates on the previous fusion build numbers XD

it also doesn't seem to do it every time, but at least 50% of the time

here is 2 screenshots of the difference

Quote from defisym

You can get object's rect position, minus top left then you can get the relative hotshot position.
However, for extensions, if author forgets to update object rect size then you may get incorrect result.

thanks for the answer

yeah there are ways of getting it, but it would be a lot cleaner and consistent if there was a direct value you could access, as things like scaling the object mess it up completely >__<

is it possible to add also being able to retrieve the actual hotspot and actionpoint values that were set in the picture editor?
because when you get the values it currently gives you the actual position of it on the screen.

Quote from Yves

Too late for build 294, maybe we can add a new condition in build 295.

I understand.

but it would be very VERY VERY much appreciated for build 295

(would be an added bonus if it was possible to do X=alterable value A, so each active can be checked at its own position ;))

Yves is it possible to make it so you can test for "overlap at" with both the objects,

so instead of just..

would ACTIVE1 at X=400, Y=0 overlap ACTIVE2?

is it possible to have...

would ACTIVE1 at X=400, Y=0 overlap ACTIVE2 at X=200, Y=50?

because currently the "overlap at" still does not fix the overlap issue & i am still unable to do what i need to in my program as shown in this example

...unless i am not using it right and there is a way to do it lol
