  Closing: we don't officially support BlackBerry devices. Despite this, our engine is standards-compliant and generally pretty reliable, so this may well be an issue with the Blackberry device itself. You may want to report the issue to RIM.

  Closing as this is an error usually caused by third party plugins, and we can't accept bug reports on behalf of other developers.

  I've taken a look at this and done some work refactoring the Platform behavior to be more pixel perfect at small scales like this. So hopefully the next build will resolve it.

  Closing as not a bug, there is no evidence this is a corrupt project and not just a mistake in your events. You might want to post this in the help forum instead.

  Closing as by design: the Sine behavior with 'Size' mode set uses the object's initial size as the value to oscillate. So the behavior is already set up in the 'Create object' action and the 'Set mirrored' after it will have no effect. This is by design, to get the effect you want just mirror the object in the layout (set its width to -32) so it's already mirrored in the 'Create object' action.

  Closing as can't reproduce, I ran Space Blaster in Chrome with WebGL disabled and it worked fine. See how to report bugs - always include your .capx and tell us which browsers you tested on.

  Closing as not a bug, you need to use the 'Login' action before any others.

  Closing as not a bug: this example is working as intended. The 'On key pressed' triggers run outside of the normal event loop; by the time "Group" runs in normal event evaluation, the local variable resets itself to its initial value, which is by design (since it is non-static). Workaround: make it a static local variable.

  ludei - Construct 2 users don't need to resize their images to power-of-two sizes, unless they are for tiled backgrounds. Construct 2 automatically packs Sprite images in to power-of-two size spritesheets which helps minimise the memory use. More info in this blog post. I've emailed you about how to support the memory management we've already coded, it should be relatively straightforward and a top priority for you guys.

  One of the hardest problems is like Velojet says you need an authoritative server to prevent cheating. However C2's architecture does not lend itself easily to that - even with a good WebSocket plugin (and even assuming it had UDP support) you might have to hand-code a server for your game, and multiplayer programming is pretty tricky on top of that.

  Given we have a community of people who are trying to avoid traditional programming, do you think that would still be useful at all? If you had to code a serverside? If so, we could still make some of the clientside plugins (like WebSocket) to provide official support for that. However we wouldn't be able to help much with writing serversides, it would probably be too complicated to write any kind of simple step-by-step tutorial for it.
