  Oh, that means it's out of memory. You need to try to use fewer images. Construct 2 is estimating the memory use in the status bar at 160mb, which is very high if you're targeting low-end mobile devices. Remember not to waste your memory

  I'm pretty sure this is a driver issue. Have you tried reporting it to AMD?

  How many targets are they aiming at? 100 turrets aiming at 100 targets for example requires every turret to check every target, which is a combination of 10,000 checks every time it updates the targets (every 100ms IIRC).

  RAM measurements are typically a little inaccurate since there are different kinds of allocations and issues like fragmentation that make it hard to come up with a single meaningful number. However layouts should not use much more extra RAM. They will need to store the initial objects (so it can load the layout when you go to it). Do you have a lot of initial objects on these layouts? I'd think you'd need in the thousands to make the results you see.

  DUTOIT - no, Firefox Nightly for Windows is only available 32-bit. You can only get an official 64-bit build for Linux (see: http://nightly.mozilla.org/)

  Closing as not a bug. Internally angles are stored as radians, and there is a small error introduced by converting degrees to radians and back again. Work around it by only showing a few digits of precision (or just round the angle).

  Can't reproduce on a Nokia Lumia 820 running Windows Phone 8, nor on Chrome for Android. Seems to work fine. Please include the full text of any error messages you receive; this may help us resolve the problem. Also, is the Lumia 720 running Windows Phone 7 or 8?

  Did you try pressing 'Reset dialogs' in Preferences?

  I can't seem to access your .capx file. Could you try using Dropbox, Google Drive or Skydrive instead?

  This has been discussed to death already. In short, technically using Construct 2 events is programming, but it's far easier and quite unlike traditional programming, and we are happy that "no programming required" is the most succinct way to convey this.

  c13303 - this report is over a year old. You should make a new report and make sure you test with the latest beta (currently r145).

  I just checked and it actually should already show the window right away, including any progress bar or loader layout that has been set. Does it really take ages before even the loader layout appears?

  If the browser is also 64-bit, then the games running in them will automatically be 64-bit as well. I don't know if Apple have updated Safari to support 64-bit processors though, or if it runs in 32-bit compatibility mode.

  Look at the stock 'Pathfinding' demo. It uses events to display the obstacle grid and show the movement waypoints.
