  • That code is necessary to correctly detect support on the most recent versions of Firefox and Edge.

    Which version of Chrome or the Android System Webview do you have on your device? Is it up-to-date?

  • Can't reproduce here. The multiplayer chat example checks if multiplayer is supported, and if I build a debug APK and run it on a HTC 10 with Android 8, it works fine. Multiplayer is detected as supported and works in the chat room.

    Is the device's Chrome or webview app up-to-date? If it's old it might not fully support multiplayer.

  • I'm afraid there's very little we can do about a report like this. We require a project and steps to reproduce with bug reports because we need them to actually investigate the problem.

    Generally issues with force close suggest a crash in native code, not Construct's code, and the fact it relates to WebGL would suggest it's a GPU driver bug. There's very little we can do about that either; the GPU vendor would need to fix the driver.

  • Closing, please see the bug report requirements for posting in this forum. Please use the other forums for general questions.

  • Now I know what you're thinking but I'm not asking for a backport but rather would like to ask, how did you manage to fix/workaround this issue?

    By using a zip. It took a few days solely to reverse engineer the zip format and figure out how to hack our zip library to put the right flags in the right places.

  • You should use rgbEx instead of rgb (rgbEx has the same 0-100 scale as everything else, and supports out-of-range values e.g. 200, -50 etc). There's no need to type in the number directly, you can use the rgbEx expression in the parameter.

  • I think Apple broke it with a recent update. I filed this WebKit bug for it.

  • I think it's this NW.js bug.

  • Use the rgbEx expression, e.g. rgbEx(100, 0, 0).

    PS: As a side note for Scirra team, I think it's too bad we can't select the effect we want to change in a drop-down list anymore. Seems like we need to type the effect name now.

    It's always been like that. There has never been a dropdown for effects.

    • Post link icon

    On the Start page, under Useful Links, it's missing the store link.

    Just thought I'd mention it.

    This is intentional. The Microsoft Store policies disallow links to other stores.

    BTW if you run in to issues please file them on the bug tracker like all other bugs.

  • I did not mean to come across as offensive. I apologise if I gave that impression at all. I am merely trying to explain commercial reality to you. For example it really is absurd to claim anyone can create a production-ready forum system in 15 minutes. To highlight that I was comparing it to equally absurd examples.

  • There is a huge gulf between a quick project you hack together as a personal project, and a commercial-grade finished product that thousands of paying customers use. Don't assume anything is easy when you bring it to that scale. It's like playing around with your own boot loader and toy OS using some low-level assembly and C, and then claiming anyone could create Windows in a couple of hours.

    The same goes for the open source suggestion. Go open source, ????? magic ?????, success! It doesn't always work like that.
