    As previously announced, as of July 2021 Construct 2 is officially retired and is no longer supported by Scirra.

    Construct 2 is already no longer available for sale. No further Construct 2 releases will be made beyond today's final r280 release. No official support will be provided for Construct 2, meaning Scirra staff will no longer be providing support for Construct 2 by email, social media, forums, bug fixes, or any other type of support. The only exception is we will continue to provide email support regarding any historical payment or license issues. Official NW.js updates for Construct 2 have also ended.

    Note that all existing valid Construct 2 licenses will continue to work indefinitely. You will still be able to use the full features of Construct 2 if you've purchased it in the past - it is only continuing support and updates that will stop. However bear in mind that if future changes to other software, such as Windows updates, causes features of Construct 2 to stop working, no further updates will be forthcoming. The Construct 2 manual, Construct 2 tutorials, and these Construct 2 forums will remain available for community support and discussion, although the Construct 2 forums have now been collapsed to a sub-category in the main forum list.

    Construct 3 is still actively supported with regular updates and new features. Note that Construct 3 r251.2 is the last release that includes the legacy Construct 2 runtime - as per the original plan, as of r252+ the C2 runtime has been removed from Construct 3. However support for importing Construct 2 projects (.capx files) will still be supported indefinitely, providing the project is compatible with the C3 runtime. There are loads of major new features, performance improvements and extra capabilities in Construct 3, not least of which are the all-new runtime with massive performance improvements, JavaScript coding, a mobile app build service, timelines, scene-graph hierarchies, lots of new official plugins and behaviors, and more recently new 3D features such as the 3D shape object. We advise all Construct 2 users to now upgrade to Construct 3. You can try Construct 3 free in your browser, and upgrade today.

    Construct 2 was supported for over 10 years, but no software lasts forever, and the time has come to move on. We'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has supported Construct over the years. Thank you for being a Construct user, and we hope you enjoy using Construct 3 too!

  • Change the "Origin" property to "Center".

  • It's the same as with a normal Construct expression. Use two double-quote characters, e.g. "Hello ""world""!" to produce Hello "world"!.

    The fact it is for JSON does not change anything. Construct handles JSON escaping internally so you don't need to worry about it in Construct expressions.

  • You do not have permission to view this post

  • There aren't any limitations, it should just work. It's hard to say more without further information like a sample project. If you think it's a problem with Construct please file an issue following all the guidelines.

  • I believe this is covered in the documentation, e.g. here. If you believe there is a problem with Construct, please file an issue following all the guidelines.

  • The error messages look like you're offline or there's otherwise a problem with your Internet connection.

  • This is why it's essential to have regular backups for digital work. You never know what might cause you to lose your work.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

  • Updates do not remove installed addons. If they disappear it must mean something else cleared your browser storage.

  • If you get a minify error and you don't use any third-party addons or your own JavaScript code in the project, please file an issue following all the guidelines.

  • Test with a private/incognito browsing window to see what a new visitor will get.

  • I'd say it would be better to leave it in and handle updates in your events as described in this tutorial. You can detect when an update is available and automatically reload to always be on the latest version. So you shouldn't need to remove the service worker to do that.

    Deleting sw.js and offline.json will disable the service worker, at the cost of removing offline support. It won't remove any service worker that's already installed for an uploaded page though. You'll have to clear your browser cache to remove it.
