when my brother tries to plugin his switch pro controller to his pc, the pc doesnt recognize that its attached to the system at all and shows no charge light.. but if i plug my controller into it , it does.
If i take his controller, and plug it into my computer, his controller does work.. what can be causing this.. the controller obviously works, the cables work, whats causing his to be not seen at all on his pc, but sees mine.. and works on my pc?

Possibly dirty usb ports. Make sure there's no dust, lint, or corrosion in either ends of the cables and ports. I once had some pocket lint get packed into my type C port on my Samsung S9, and it kept my phone from charging or being seen on a PC. Took one of those green dental pick toothpicks to get the lint out without shorting the pins inside.

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after
    the player dies?

    Squeeze your cheeks twice to answer calls!
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.
