Gideros Game Template

@ar2rsawseen Oh ok, why did you delete the crate example where they just fall down? Is there any way we can download that template again? $:\$ ">

I'm asking because I wanted to test the transition from clearing a level to the next one. I am mainly trying to see how unlocking levels/packs work, in order to implement something similar on my game.

@somezombiegm oh, that was a long, long time ago

In most cases, you can take any box2d example and copy contents in the level scene:

@ar2rsawseen Well, I've found one of the very first tests I did with the template. I think that might help. Thanks anyway!

@ar2rsawseen Hello again. I was testing the sounds with one of the audio files

sounds:play("complete")

and didn't work even if I changed the sound option from on to off and then to on again.

This code was needed on main.lua to solve the issue

-- Enable sounds
if sets:get("sounds") then
	sounds:on()
end

Cheers

How can I pause the game (level.lua), go to another scene and come back to the same scene with the game still paused and all the level values as they were before pausing? (If this post needs to be on another thread please let me know).

I'm trying to think of a way to do it. If I stay on level.lua class, I'm guessing it's easy to stop the timers and block or remove some of the events (like Event.ENTER_FRAME) while the game is paused.

But I want to pause the game, change scene and then go back to the paused game. I'm confused cause on the changeScene function on scenemanager.lua, a new object of the new scene is always created.

self.scene2 = self.scenes[scene].new()
self.scene2:setVisible(false)
self:addChild(self.scene2)

Could a way to do it be to modify scenemanager.lua with something like this?:

if scene == "level" then
    self.scene2 = self.previouslySavedLevelScene
else
    self.scene2 = self.scenes[scene].new()
end
self.scene2:setVisible(false)
self:addChild(self.scene2)

@somezombiegm The simples way is a popup. Basically you don't use sceneManager, but instead create instance your self and add it to current scene.

Then you need to enable ignoring touch and mouse events, like this:

function Popup:init()
	self:addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_DOWN, self.ignore, self)
	self:addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_MOVE, self.ignore, self)
	self:addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_UP, self.ignore, self)
end
 
function Popup:ignore(e)
	e:stopPropagation()
end

This will prevent from input events passing to current scene, and you are good to go with the popup scene
