@jstrahan,

  1. You should charge more for your plugin/utility.  This is a really great idea and I’m excited to try it out.

  2. Does it get e-mailed after paying via PayPal?

_pause.lua is now available for download at http://j-strahan.com/main2/_pause-lua/

It’s a great module… but can you explain how to implement it in the above rag dog flappy bird template. I’m trying to implement it but i guess my coding knowledge is that of a beginner.

#31

I’m not at computer at the moment won’t be till later tonite

#32

OK thank you and have a good weekend.

#33

welcome
I can tell you all the pause code was added to top if main.lua and just two lines added to gameScene.lua
perhaps ksan can share the lines if code I added if he gets a chance before me

#34

In gameScene.lua, put the following in 

in function activateGameOver … around line 77/78

---------------------------- -- hide pause button   system.hidePause() ----------------------------

in function scene:createScene( ) right at the top

  system.resetPause()

in function bg:touch(event) which itself is in  function scene:createScene( ), right after tutorialIMG = nil;  

------------------------------ show pause button   system.showPause() ----------------------------

Hope this helps.

i’ve posted a tutorial on how I added pause to the flappy template.

#36

Thank you ksan and jstrahan, for the code and tutorial

#37

want to try it before you buy it?

you can now download a fully working demo of pause.lua, scroll to bottom of page for link.

you do have to jump thru some hoops to get it, ( register, wait for me to approve it, then login and download)

i will approve within 24 hours in most cases. please register with your corona username so i know who you are.

sorry for this but it is free. the only catches are you can only download once, it will not work after June 1.

demo code is not readable however the paid version is and has no deadline date.

ps. not sure if demo will work on windows. i do not have a windows machine to test on but it is free so give it a shot.

Hi Jeffery,

Just letting you know that I sent the payment through on PayPal and did not receive the e-mail.

Only e-mail received was the PayPal confirmation.

Regards,

Dave
