  • We've experimented with a few additional export options over the years. They tend to be a ton of work and also require a lot of on-going maintenance, but attract very few users. So if the Amazon App Store doesn't accept APKs I'm not sure it's likely we could justify all the work involved.

  • AFAIK there should be no dependency on UIWebView in a vanilla build. Nepeo - maybe you know more?

  • Construct has defaulted to using the newer WKWebView for a long time now (amonst other things, it's much faster). So if your app uses UIWebView, it must be because of other features.

    According to this recent thread the InAppBrowser Cordova plugin appears to still use UIWebView, so maybe that's causing the problem. It can be configured to use WKWebView instead though.

  • It loops infinitely. It will never stop because "every" events do not work if you keep re-checking them within the same tick. You have to let the rest of the events keep running.

  • It should work - the Cordova app itself is loading the game in a webview. I'd check that InAppBrowser is using WKWebView and not the legacy UIWebView, which might cause some problems due to its age.

  • When features are deprecated it means they are on track for removal. So you should stop using deprecated features as soon as possible and not use them for any new purposes.

  • Construct doesn't ever generate a message like that itself, so it must be coming from somewhere else. Maybe it comes from the website or a third-party addon.

  • Actually I think this can be done better if we add a "facing mode" parameter to the "request camera" action. It should be straightforward and avoids having to deal with the quirks of the source list. I'll see if I can get that in for the next beta cycle.

  • Yeah, you can find a "back" camera source by searching the source list, as I suggested. The camera input demo shows you how to access the list.

    The actual descriptions of the camera sources are only available after you've already approved permission though. Since remote preview runs on preview.construct.net, if you've ever approved camera on preview.construct.net, you'll be able to access the descriptions. However if you publish to your own website (e.g. example.com), the first time you visit that the descriptions will be anonymised for security reasons.

  • Because it only works with specific versions of NW.js and the Steam SDK. If it was built-in to Construct it would lock you to those specific versions until we did an update to Construct, which would then lock you to new versions. Having it as a separate addon gives you the freedom to match to whichever NW.js/Steam SDK version you want.
