  No, it won't work. But IE recently announced they are working on ORTC, a variant of WebRTC, so we should be able to support multiplayer in IE eventually.

  Did you get the same error message or a different one? It would be very strange if it still shows an error about requesting fullscreen if you never do that. Also have you tried disabling all browser extensions/addons? Sometimes they break things.

  Well according to dictionary.com theft is "the act of stealing", and steal has a number of definitions including "to take (the property of another or others) without permission or right", "to appropriate (ideas, credit, words, etc.) without right or acknowledgment", and "to take, get, or win insidiously, surreptitiously, subtly, or by chance". I think the definition is appropriate for piracy: technically you are copying or using digital work without permission (more broadly speaking "appropriating ideas"), or "taking insidiously". The fact digital goods can be easily copied is simply a detail, and I think the image was prepared by trolls trying to defend their use of piracy by misleading people away from the dictionary definition.

  Yeah, your screenshot shows the alpha is set to 1. It sounds like it is working correctly and you just need to set the alpha back to 255.

  It shouldn't do, I've done it with official features in the past. You should provide more information otherwise I can only guess at what could possibly have gone wrong.

  Can you explain exactly what you are doing, what is happening, and provide all the details required by the bug template please? Provide screenshots if it helps. I don't understand why you can't just type new values in to the color picker RGBA values either, have you tried that?

  I've never seen this nor is there much I can do without steps to reproduce it or at least an indication of what your preferences are. Is there any more information you can provide?

  Does it work correctly if you press "ignore"? If so perhaps the check could simply be removed...

  I think it's just a mistake in that demo, some of the blends need to be on their own texture to work correctly. I've updated it for the next build.

  I can't reproduce on Chrome, Firefox or IE here. The buttons stay the same size and in the same place. Browsers have adjusted how they handle zoom in recent releases, so perhaps this was fixed by the browser vendors.

  The original version of the 'Else' condition did this, but it was extremely complicated to code, buggy, possibly performance impacting, and confusing to use as well (I forget specifically why, but I think it was for cases like OR blocks followed by a SOL-inverting ELSE start to get pretty hard to reason about).

  I also want to avoid having two types of 'Else' condition, since this takes a nice simple straightforward event which beginners can understand immediately, to something you need to go sifting through the manual to understand.

  Also the workaround is simple: just follow with the same event but with inverted conditions.

  There is no way to do this because it's not a good idea. Allow the user to do what they want with the returned data, don't force them in to specific solutions.

  Yes, place conditions above the collision check to filter down the objects to only those meeting the condition, and then collision checks will only work with those instances.
