  • Why is text treated differently than sprites? I've done some things before and text has always lacked an "upon created" option like sprites.

    I just explained - text is treated the same as sprites, in terms of picking in the event sheet. Text does have an 'On created' trigger too, as Sprites do.

    It's difficult to comment any further without trying a real project file - that's always the best way to show what you're doing and get the right help.

  • how would i know the UID of the instantiated object?

    Read its UID expression after creating it.

  • Both Text inputs and Text objects support having unique per-instance text. They're not special in any way, it works the same as doing something like setting a per-instance animation for Sprites: use conditions to pick specific instances, and then the actions will only affect the picked instances.

  • It's more complicated than it sounds: you need things like hit detection, cursor changes, and style variations, to match how it works in a browser. You can do links with HTML element though, and use the full browser styling capabilities.

  • Construct 3 does provide a Google account login option - if you're logged in with a username, try logging out, then log in again, and click the "Google" button.

  • Construct 3 does work offline, but you need to be online to load it for the first time.

  • Is there a reason you're still using an old version of iOS (14.6)?

    It's usually impossible to help without more detailed information - if you think it's a problem with Construct you'll need to file an issue following all the guidelines.

  • Please report any issues following all the guidelines here: https://github.com/Scirra/Construct-3-bugs

    That is where we sort out bugs, and things only mentioned on the forum/comments/social media etc. are likely to be lost and forgotten.

    FWIW the file link in your post says it's deleted.

  • Construct is regularly updated and already has far more features than some other tools on the market. I'm not sure what the problem is!

    When we announced Construct Animate, some people were worried that all our time would be spent doing updates only for Construct Animate and Construct 3 would be neglected. This shows that actually the vast majority of changes improve both, and C3 is certainly not being neglected. Weekly updates with lots of changes shows a lot of progress.

  • This thread was originally posted nearly a year ago, and iOS 16 is now nearly out. As far as I know there were lots of updates to iOS which dealt with lots of things like WebGL bugs and that probably already solved any issues.

    As I said before, if you continue to have problems with iOS 16, it's most likely a bug in iOS and so would need to be reported to Apple.

  • I would guess your system only supports WebGL 1 and not WebGL 2. With only WebGL 1 only power-of-two size images can be tiled, so Construct is forced to resize the image to a power-of-two size, which degrades the quality. WebGL 2 supports tiling any size image so doesn't have to do that. Devices that only support WebGL 1 are pretty rare these days!
