Hi. I’m trying to incorporate my game into the Multiscene Multilevel demo. When the player selects a level there is a menu scene where the player selects to start the level, view high scores, etc. The content of this scene scales fine (since it is set by the loader). However when the game starts, the level zooms in on higher resolution devices so I cannot see most of the level. I’ve included parts of the code below. Thanks, Phil

 

import Felgo 3.0
import QtQuick 2.0
import "../common" as Common

Common.LevelBase {
    levelName: "mygameMenuScene"

    MygameGameScene {
        id: mygameGameScene
        onGameOver: menuWindow.show()
        width: 320
        height: 480
    }

    Item {
        id: menuWindow

        width: parent.width
        height: parent.height

        //...
    }
}

MygameGameScene.qml:

import Felgo 3.0
import QtQuick 2.0
import "../common" as Common

Scene {
    id: mygameGameScene

    signal gameOver()
    enabled: false

    //...
}

The code from MultiSceneMultiLevel is:

Main.qml

import Felgo 3.0
import QtQuick 2.0
import "scenes"

GameWindow {
    id: window
    width: 320
    height: 480

    //...

    // game scene to play a level
    GameScene {
        id: gameScene
        width:320
        height:320*window.height/window.width
    }

    //...
}

GameScene.qml

import Felgo 3.0
import QtQuick 2.0
import "../common"
import "../levels"

SceneBase {
    id:gameScene
    focus: true

    //...

    // load levels at runtime
    Loader {
        id: loader
        source: activeLevelFileName != "" ? "../levels/" + activeLevelFileName : ""
        onLoaded: {
            // since we did not define a width and height in the level item itself, we are doing it here
            item.width = parent.width
            item.height = parent.height

            //...
        }
    }
}

Hi Phil!

The Scene component is responsible for scaling the elements of the scene to the actual resolution of the device. So no matter the device, the scene along with its elements always fit the screen.

As far as I see it, you currently create a structure where multiple scenes are used.
(GameWindow -> Scene (GameScene) -> Loader (loads your level) -> MyGamegameScene (Scene within your level)

As both scenes try to scale their contents to match the device window, things get messed up at this point.
Just try to build your Levels in a way that doesn’t use an additional scene and you should be good to go. 😉

Best,
Günther

Thanks! That makes sense. I replaced the ‘Scene’ in MygameGameScene.qml with ‘Item’ and now it’s working fine.
