  The error you posted is commonly associated with broken third party plugins or behaviors, which we cannot fix, and does not actually contain much other useful information (the automatically provided information is pretty hit and miss). Without the actual project reproducing this problem, there is not sufficient evidence to consider this a bug in Construct 2. You can email the .capx to ashleyfyy@scirra.com if you would prefer not to share it publicly. Also note by design r151.2 removed the 'Load from JSON string' action and conflicting 'AsJSON' expression from the Array and Dictionary objects, since they overlapped features the objects already had; you might see this error if you used those features, in which case the workaround is to open in r151, delete those features and save, then reopen in r151.2.

  Closing, please attach a .capx otherwise we cannot investigate bug reports.

  DrNickTo - just to clarify again that this poll is for the color themes in the Colors tab of Preferences, not the UI theme you can choose from the ribbon View tab.

  I don't think the native physics engine does yet.

  Hi all,

  I'd like to change the default color theme in Construct 2. (Note the color scheme is different to the UI theme - it is set in the Colors tab of Preferences, and mainly affects the event sheet colors). I think the other themes have a better distinction between things like comments, variables and includes.

  Which of the three bundled color schemes in the latest beta is your favourite? Please try them all before voting, and note you need to close and reopen any tabs after changing the theme for it to fully take effect.

  If there's a clear winner, I'll make the switch for the next stable release.

  If you can reproduce any issue reliably, please submit it as a bug report and we'll take a look. Perhaps the latest betas are better as well?

  Closing as not a bug; set a text object to the bullet's Y co-ordinate in that event and it's the same both ways. I think it's just because gamepad and keyboard input are received at different points within the game loop, and with the keyboard input it ticks the bullet behavior before it draws, so it appears a frame ahead (even though it was created in the same place).

  We had a problem with the server overnight, hopefully everything's fixed now.

  I strongly recommend using the Javascript SDK if you need to execute more than a single line of javascript.

  BTW looks like the Browser object expressions might be able to do what that javascript code does anyway!

  Suspending is no good for pausing, because it suspends the entire engine. Since no events are running it is impossible for it to resume!

  Collisions in physics are enabled or disabled for entire object types. It's just for efficiency, otherwise the engine ends up carrying around huge tables of which instances are allowed to collide with which other instances. You could come up with alternative implementations of both your suggestions by temporarily disabling the physics behavior instead of using the 'disable collisions' feature (and you can disable the behavior for individual instances at a time).
