  Sorry, CSS styles are implemented by the browser, not Construct 2, so there's no way we can fix this. Closing.

  Ha, that is a silly bug. I could reproduce, and found it's accidentally running some export code in preview mode which created the folder when you preview. Should be fixed in the next build, thanks for the report.

  Your second image actually shows how it already works.

  This thread seems to have gone corrupt or something, the paging is broken. I think you should start a new thread, and provide the information we asked for. Closing.

  I don't think the referrer is a reliable thing to detect this with. There are a few security features that can blank it out (e.g. one in Content Security Policy again) and sometimes it's not present by default (IIRC https -> http drops it).

  The 'Positioned audio' example (built-in) shows a rotating object with a directional sound.

  Think of a directional sound as a cone: relative to the direction the object is pointing in, the inner angle is all max volume, the outer angle is at minimum volume, and the bit in between smoothly transitions from one to the other.

  I thought you meant portals would iframe your game running on your own site? In that case you can specifically allow the portal and nobody else. If it's hosted on the portal itself, then it's up to them to prevent people iframing their content (which I would have thought is very much in their interest anyway).

  I'm hesitant to make a built-in sitelock feature in C2 since it provides a single point of breakage. Once someone figures out how to circumvent the sitelock, they can circumvent it for all C2 games. However if you invent your own solution it's more work since there is no one way to globally unlock all C2 games.

  Aside from making events check their own domain, HTTP has features to prevent unwanted frames. X-Frame-Options looks like it can do it, but the newer standardised version is Content Security Policy, specifically the frame-ancestors directive. Configuring your server to send a HTTP header like:

  Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors self https://awesomearcade.com

  should only allow the page to be framed by either its own origin, or https://awesomearcade.com.

  The only way to know for sure is to test on a real device. Things like CPU and GPU power cannot be accurately simulated.

  I'm not sure what the point of this is - Chromebooks can already run the HTML5 exports perfectly, so why would you want to put a gigantic Android compatibility layer in the way?

  Are you using Crosswalk? Which build system are you using with which settings? What device and OS version is it? There's a lot you're not describing here.

  Answer your own performance quesitons with measurements

  You will probably just be wasting your time, though.

  Both cases exit on the first false condition, FWIW.

  The problem is similar to debugging triggers, and I recently explained why that is hard: https://www.scirra.com/forum/debug-idea-request_p1071997?#p1071997

  Basically the architecture of browsers makes this pretty difficult.

  Bumbing this thread. I have heard that Microsoft are concerned about the security infrastructure of Construct. Any comment on that?

  Citation needed - never heard any such concerns myself! If you point out anybody with any specific concerns, I could comment.
