  djcrazypants - what was it about your server? It would help to let us know in case anyone has the same issue in future. It also sounds like it might have been a Firefox addon bug.

  countofquad - both your examples work correctly and the same they used to. It is only "sibling" subevents that act differently now.

  You can spawn objects of the same type, but they aren't picked. It should be easy to work around using system's 'create object' instead!

  Did you check for browser errors? It's important information since there could be errors specific to your server.

  Edit: seems to work just fine on our server: http://www.scirra.com/labs/subwars/

  Check your server has the right MIME types set up as described in that tutorial.

  Have you seen how to make a Windows 8 app?

  I don't see a popup which says anything about offline mode. If you decline it or choose a different option does the event fire?

  ViewportRight("layer") - ViewportLeft("layer")

  ViewportBottom("layer") - ViewportTop("layer")

  The easiest way to integrate a game in to a web page is just to export it normally then use an iframe on a different page to show the game. You need to tweak the game's HTML a little bit to remove the margins so it shows all the way in the top left, then it should work fine.

  I don't want to do this because:

  • FTP clients are complicated, and I don't want to reinvent the wheel - Filezilla already exists for that and does it well
  • the FTP protocol is complicated so it would be time consuming to do this
  • even Windows supports FTP, so you can literally drag and drop a folder and it will upload it

  Both your examples work again here. Although for some reason this time at first it didn't seem like it was working, because Windows seemed to fall back to a wireless network on my laptop and kept a connection, so the event never fired. If I disabled the wireless then pulled out the LAN cable, the events fired. Still, this isn't an issue with Construct 2, it just listens for when the browser tells it the event happened - you might want to take this up with Google/Mozilla if it's important to you.

  You can work around it by using 'is overlapping at offset', or in fact I would recommend using the Physics behavior instead - the platform behavior is designed for player control, not for falling blocks like this.

  Are you using CocoonJS? The plugin isn't really working on mobile yet, it's still a work in progress. It should work OK on Chrome for desktop though.

  You can't reload too quickly or the browser won't have finished downloading the update. Use Chrome and watch the console and it reports its progress. What does the Chrome console say?
