  bolosaur - they might use custom Javascript to resize the images in the engine. I suppose we could take a similar approach but for large games it can affect the startup time. It's hard for us to take a general approach that works for all games - custom-coded games like BrowserQuest can use specific hacks to make things work as they need and it doesn't matter if it wouldn't work well for different types of game.

  Have you tried r92 by the way? Should improve the point sampling on WebKit browsers.

  Hi all, just a heads up: the next build will have 'Load image from URL' integrated in to both Sprite and Tiled Background with support for WebGL as well. Hopefully this will satisfy all needs for loading images dynamically.

  We have a Kongregate plugin, but I'm afraid we don't currently support the commercial API (selling items etc.)

  If you're a good javascript programmer and want to start making it yourself with WebSockets, you can do so already with the Javascript SDK.

  Hi —, I'm afraid the resources are only licensed for use within Construct 2. We'll have publishing to iOS shortly though!

  Please see how to report bugs. Can you share the project that has this problem? Otherwise I cannot find out what has gone wrong.

  We don't currently have a Photoshop import feature I'm afraid, and I'm not sure we will in the near future. All I can recommend is try to design your layers inside Construct 2 from the start.

  Oops. Safari is funny about how it treats co-ordinates in retina mode, and it accidentally treats the touches like it's still in low-res mode. Fixed for next build, though.

  All instances have width and height properties - why not just access the ones from the object type given to you in the parameter?

  Not yet, although we have plans to eventually support it.

  Looks like a Safari bug. I've added a hack to work around it and fix it, hopefully it will work in the next build.

  As far as I know there are not any mobile browsers that support hiding the browser UI automatically. I may be wrong or behind the times though, so if you find any way to do that, let me know and I can build it in. I thought the only way it was possible on iOS is to 'Add to home screen' where it will then run in Safari without any browsing UI. Alternatively you can try publishing through other platforms (CocoonJS, appMobi, PhoneGap) which wrap it in a native app and always run in fullscreen.
