  Construct 2 will deduplicate images on export so it's not wasteful. I'll leave the bug report open and try to support this in future.

  Looks like a bug in node-webkit: we correctly make the call, but node-webkit does nothing. I found a workaround - just delaying the request by 100ms seems to make it work (which is weird). The workaround is in the next build so hopefully that fixes it.

  Closing as not a bug. You play the sound at 0dB volume, then mute it the next tick. So you are hearing about 16ms of audio playback, which is what your events specify.

  Closing, we don't support older releases. Please test again using r148 and report again if it's still an issue, following all the bug report guidelines.

  You can't have it both ways. Either it's framerate independent and non-deterministic, or framerate dependent and deterministic. I would recommend framerate independent, and design your game with wide enough tolerances that the random variations are not significant to the gameplay.

  The measurement for event sheets also counts includes. If Event-Kitchen includes Mechanics, then the time to run Mechanics is also counted in Event-Kitchen. I think it adds up this way. It is a little confusing I guess, since event sheets are listed next to each other rather than nested.

  It depends on the cache directives that the server sends back in the HTTP response.

  It's definitely a step in the right direction. Hopefully a future update will enable WebGL and WebAudio, then we're in business... once everyone updates to Android 4.4, which could take some time!

  Construct 2 pre-loads each layout's textures before loading it, so there should be little to no dynamic loading or caching during the game. Which device model and OS version are you testing on?

  It should be nowhere near that bad. Please post a bug report with a repro .capx and instructions on which device/exporter you're using, and I'll look in to it.

  Added ability to enable/disable it in the next build. As ever, I recommend if the built-in behaviors don't do enough, re-do them with events! The Scroll To behavior is trivial to make in events, and then it's easy to customise too. Behaviors like Scroll To are for rapid prototyping and beginner accessibility (no need to even get in to the events).

  This occurs because the runtime only supports one set of margin values. The editor supports individual margins, but only the first set are used at runtime. To work around it, clone the object four times and set the margins for each different type. The runtime should work the same as the editor, but at least there's an easy workaround for now.

  Have you tried using r148? Also, is the CocoonJS launcher 1.4.4 available for iOS yet? It may not work until that's updated.
