Build doesn't work properly
« on: June 09, 2017, 01:14:24 PM »
Hi!

When I build the game, I expect that it should work good when it works in the editor, right? But no! First in the editor. I shoot an object to get some points and then I lose the life so it's game over, then I can write my name and my name will be in the highscore list. Everything works fine in the editor, but not in the build. I do the same, get some points, lose the life, game over, and that's it. The input field where I write my name doesn't appear. It doesn't go to the enter name state. I don't understand why. Another game mode works fine. It's the same highscore manager, but with some changes, so it fits the game mode.

Does anybody have some ideas why it works in the editor and not in the build? Did anybody else experience this before?

I've been having the same problems. I'm on my 4th game, 2 of which I've had to scrap entirely because although they work fantastic in the editor, the build is buggy and barely any functions work.

Good luck getting any support on this forum! They take forever to respond and when they do it's ZERO help.

Hi!
I'm agreed it takes forever to get some help. I think it depends what it is about.
But I'm afraid I need to build up this scene again, but I can probably use copy and paste.

I don't know when this happened. But it worked before I changed the Score Int to Score Float. I don't remember if it worked after that.

Maybe Jean Fabre has any answer. Or Alex. :)

I got it to work. I just deleted the highscore list in the build.
I made a FSM with get key and then easy save delete. And then build the game and then delete. I can't explain why, but maybe it was something with the Easy Save file or something. :D

I'm glad you got your to work!

I have a huge scene that I spent about a week working on that works great in the editor but not at all once built. All of the triggers are just unresponsive. I've been trying to find a solution for so long. I really wish Playmaker had some sort of customer service....
