  Normalize your audio to less than peak level, or just play them at lower than 0 dB volume. Maybe -3 dB. Then you won't go past peak level and the limiter shouldn't need to kick in. The more sounds you play at once the lower you should set the volume. Or just trust the system limiter to do it's job, it's preventing distortion and it's a useful feature.

  Huh, that's weird that they'd use a string instead of a simple true/false value. Updated for next build.

  Closing as won't fix. The .capx file is simply missing some animation frame files. We want to fix this is a bug caused them to go missing, but we can't fix it without the steps that caused the problem in the first place.

  So the actual bug is lastdata is not set if the HTTP error code is 400? I've changed the plugin to still set lastdata in this case, so hopefully the next build fixes it.

  Closing as won't fix. Why would you use the 8 direction behavior instead of the platform behavior? It's not designed to be used in this way.

  Nope, can't reproduce on Firefox Nightly either. Your description exactly matches what a compressor/limiter would do to avoid distortion, especially if you have normalised your audio to peak level before import, so this is most likely not a Construct 2 bug.

  Closing, I changed the way the console object is detected and that should fix it.

  Thanks, should be fixed in the next build. Note your example file has its own issues not to do with the bug though (e.g. wrong cell size, should have cell border of -1, 8 direction will conflict with Pathfinding movement).

  I'm afraid the jump-thru behavior just doesn't support slopes at the moment. I've updated the manual to note this. Just switch to the Solid behavior and your example should work.

  Can I confirm you are setting the 'Tilemap width' or 'Tilemap height' properties? I can reproduce a problem setting those properties, but your description makes it sound like you're setting the object width/height to 0, which appears to work fine.

  Can't reproduce, works fine here. Make sure you have Java installed, since the minifier requires it, and if you reinstalled Windows then you won't have Java installed by default.

  Can't reproduce on Chrome with Windows 8.1. Note some audio setups deliberately compress high-level input to prevent distortion. If any of your sounds are normalized to peak level, the playback system might kick in a compressor or limiter which would have the effect of making the background music sound quieter.

  You should not do this, in principle. Simply expose the data from your plugin, and allow users to display it where they want via the event system.
