Notes

We're now working towards a stable release in the next couple of weeks, so our focus has turned to bug fixes and reliability. Notably this release fixes a regression in r437 where the Instances Bar could save invalid data to the project and cause it to stop opening - while potentially worrying, it was easy to fix this to make sure Construct can still read such projects, so any affected projects should open again with this release and newer.

The File Chooser object has had a couple of minor updates in this release. As ever there's a batch of bug fixes, an update for Android exports, and the 'Software update needed' error message that could appear for old out-of-date browsers/devices is now translatable (previously it always appeared in English). Happy testing!

  • Actually i've only seen "Software update needed" appearing randomly on the devices where it worked fine before, and it also just disappears as randomly after some times. What can it be sign of?

  • Is it possible to add an option to not change the size and location of objects on the screen when opening the mobile keyboard?
