  • I skipped a few versions, recently updated Construct, and now this happens (pay attention to what I'm showing with my mouse).

    It seems like the tiled background's image is being displayed at a Z offset.

    Idk if this is a bug or if I'm just missing something, so that is why I'm posting it here. Also, I can't seem to be able to reproduce it in a new project, so if it is I can't really report it properly.

    So, what the hell is that?

  • Check the value of "Use WebGPU in editor" in Menu -> Settings, it's all the way to the bottom. Normally I leave it in "Auto" and everything seems ok in my system. I just tried setting it to "No" and I am seeing some unusual scrolling in the layout view.

    It is set to Auto.

    The problem is also present in runtime, if that wasn't clear.

    Also, TiledBackgrounds (and Sprites) at the edge of the viewport are disappearing. Which I think is relevant because I think that Construct calculates that they are out of sight, but as they are rendered further back, they, in reality, aren't.

    I think this was a result of the deprecation of the old Z rendering mode I can't remember the name of in favor of "Normalized".

    Edit: I have tested tweaking that option. I think "Auto" is setting it to "Yes" because "Yes" changes nothing. "No" completely screws up everything very badly.
