@Yann
Reading between the lines I got the idea that Textbox.text here can be anything in practice like an instance variable (Unit.Health) or maybe Sprite.UID

Am I right here? How should one mention a global variable there? Just using its name? Thanks!

Yeah exactly, it's an expression inside c2 all expression follow the same rule/syntax so & is a concatenation operator, and you can concatenate any thing so you can use global &MyVar& or instance &Sprite.myVar& or anything you want.

I am curious why you are using the canvas plugin for the Lemmings example and not setting it up like a platformer? Is there any technical reason for this? I am interested in building a Lemmings style game but I am a Construct beginner so I want to make sure I get moving in the right direction as I start on it.

It's a technical reason. Sprites use polygon collisions which are not changeable at runtime. Canvas' can set/get individual pixels so it can be used for per pixel collision and tunneling.

Hi!
Im trying to load the online score example of this men
http://www.scirra.com/forum/topic45860_post287339.html

But i cant get it to work.
I tried uploading the php files to a server setting permissions to 777 and dont see nothing, all as blank.

After I tried to change the event url as complete url "http://myurl.com/post.php?name=NEWENTRY&score=1337"

and

"http://myurl.com/w/readscores.php?num_scores=10" and nothing.

Finally i tried to export the game to html5 and upload to my url and it doesnt work.

Anybody knows a sollution?
Thx!

Well... i just copied it to my server and... it doesn't work anymore LOL! :D

Maybe there was a php update or something that broke it, i really have no idea wtf is going on but i'll look into or write a new one once the XML object can write data back.
