    That said you can still have arcade bodies in sub objects, it’s just that you have to update them explicitly with the position you want (see https://github.com/ceramic-engine/ceramic-samples/blob/master/pixel-platformer/src/Player.hx#L143 as à example)
  • g
    ah ok, thanks!
  • g
    makes sense that it does check parent visuals, I tried doing body.updateCenter() and it didn't update, but it makes sense now, I need to add the parent position not just floor
  • g
    what if the position is static? the body still doesnt line up with the floor quad
  • g
    i understand that its because it doesnt take into account the relative position of the 
    elevator
    , but even with code that updates a separate body that isnt attached to the floor its still a bit buggy
  • g
    found a solution, if i make the class extend visual and just make a child thats the actual elevator texture i can make the floor collider have an absolute position
  • f
    i should really try out tweens
  • b
    Yes, that’s easy and convenient stuff 😄
  • f
    uhhh
  • e
    that looks correct to me
  • b
    Feel free to explain what you want to do if you need help
  • f
    oh, i forgot to say, i fixed it
  • f
    the issue was that the function i passed in wasn't actually multiplying with the value
  • f
    so how do scene fades work?
  • b
    When you assign a new scene to a slot already used by another scene, the existing scene calls fadeOut() and is then destroyed when fadeOut() has finished. The new scene fadeIn is called at the same time previous’s fadeOut() is called

    !mention @Ceramic Anybody participating in Ludum Dare and using Ceramic for that this WE?
  • a
    lol, on it

    Not planning on it, I already have a project with ceramic and I'm starting a new project soon too
  • g
    Would be sick to see some more ceramic games though
  • b
    I wish more people would (ludum) dare to try Ceramic he he . .
  • f
    when does the new scene's create() get called in all that, and when does the loading happen?
  • b
    fadeIn() is always called after create()
  • b
    I think eventually I'll have to create something similar to deepnight's GameBase for Ceramic. Need to polish a few things before that though. And will work on that AFTER supporting LDtk anyway, but it would be nice to have that as a quick starter, especially for game jams
  • a
    is the code for you ld game open source? it would be cool to add it to the snippet list
  • b
    I initially planned to because I wanted to submit a COMPO entry, but honestly it's quite a mess 😂
  • b
    In terms of sample code, I am more thinking about providing a step by step tutorial to create a platformer game
  • b
    But before that, I want to add LDtk support to Ceramic, because that's what I want to use in the tutorial
  • b
    (tutorial, that will come with the project code of course)
  • h
    Does Ceramic have any pathfinding built in (eg. A star or something like that)?
