  Does it work OK if you remove Mobile Advert?

  To be able to diagnose this problem it's very important to have comprehensive information: the device model, device manufacturer, Android version, and the type of export (Cordova or web) are all essential. Without this we can only guess what to do about this.

  When exporting with 135.2, the project worked as expected. But on 137, I got black screens when changing layouts.

  Could you check r136? The WebGL 2 change was made after that release for r137, so this would help narrow it down to that.

  I don't know, I don't speak Serbian. It's up to your judgement how to translate terms. However the purpose of translations is so that somebody with no knowledge of English at all can still reasonably use the software, so in general I think it's best to translate, except where there is a de-facto English term that is still used as-is.

  Also expression translations require that there is no space, as described in the translation guidelines.

  Sorry, looks like an omission from the current docs. I'll try get the documentation on this finished soon.

  This is covered in the manual entry on Pathfinding:

  Note all cells outside the layout area are always obstacles. Areas outside the layout area cannot be included in the pathfinding grid, since doing so would require an infinite amount of memory.

  I think it's logical to conclude that the fault lies with nw.js - the screen recorder works with the vast majority of programs but not nw.js

  Nope. It's the job of screen recording software to be able to record the screen.

  It's absolutely, 100% a problem with the screen recording software. It's not Construct's or NW.js's fault. If screen recording software can't record the screen, it's not doing what it says on the tin. Their software is broken. If they claim it's not their fault, they are being negligent.

  Electron uses the same browser engine as NW.js. I don't know why it would work differently with screen recorders - perhaps they disable the GPU process, which might degrade performance. You can do that with NW.js anyway if you pass the --in-process-gpu flag. Still, as I said before, it's a bug in the screen recording software if it can't record your screen.

  BTW the latest C3 releases include the Game Recorder object which has a built-in screen recording feature... which always works!

  I checked and both runtimes do only call that method after startGameAsync() has resolved.

  Form controls float above the canvas, so nothing else can be layered on top of them.

  Changing the FPS is currently not supported. However you can change the timescale and check everything changes speed accordingly - e.g. set a timescale to 0 and everything using dt will stop; anything not using dt will carry on.
