swapping weapons in Construct2?

[Fabian1996]

Hey,

I am a beginner with Spriter and I am wondering how I can swap swords in Construct2 with SpriterPro.

I have already made a char map, but I can't really find on the internet how to change weapons in C2.

hopefully somebody can help me.

Greetings,
Fabian

Hey Mike, thanks for the quick response

I watched the video and downloaded the CAPX.
Still I can't figure it out because it is quite difficult to understand.
How do I connect a char map to a list? And how does the LocalStorage work for swapping?

Could it be explained more clearly?

I like to hear it :)

Have you gone through the example capx and tried to analyze it? Did you try importing your own spriter object into a construct project and then apply a character map? I think you think it's more complicated than it is and it's throwing you off.

You don't need to use local storage or list boxes or anything else. If you want the game to switch your character's sword, you just create the character map in the spriter project that switches the sword image and then in construct use the action to append the character map and type in the name of the character map.

It worked! Thank you for the explanation and your time
