    Closing as this is an obvious attempt to find ways to circumvent copy protections.

  • You can't make Flash games in Construct. Given Flash will be officially retired in a few years, it's a much better idea to use HTML5 anyway.

  • Try Construct 3

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

  • And r249 does work for you? Which builds work exactly?

  • We've had sporadic issues with the build in the past, maybe it's happened again. I did a rebuild of r250, here's another setup link: construct2-r250-setup2.exe

    Does that work better for anyone affected?

  • Typically while investigating a bug we have to try the repro steps dozens of times. If the steps include "wait 12-24 hours", it's going to be a lot harder. Any diagnostic information you can provide at all about the nature of the problem or precisely what timing it happens with would be useful.

  • I've no idea what this could be, especially if it seems to be working for most people (I haven't seen many reports of this).

    Can you post your full system specs if you are affected? Perhaps there is something we can correlate from that.

  • * It is annoying that groups/anything always open up after drag dropped or copy pasted

    Please file a bug for that!

    [quote:2iq3zxij]* It would be good to have a full screen toggle on the top bar somewhere (maybe on the top right, seems to be a bit of dead space there next to the profile login), as it is uncommonly nice to work full screen with C3

    It's there on mobile, but on desktop it takes over the whole UI and basically rules out multitasking until you exit fullscreen. Do you still want that?

    [quote:2iq3zxij]* The find/search box stays open on top of the events you are trying to look through. Would be better to have search box neatly integrated into the search results, at least when docked. Or hide the search box after results with a button somewhere on the results to open again.

    This and some of the others are good ideas, maybe file on https://construct3.ideas.aha.io/ so it doesn't get lost

    [quote:2iq3zxij]* Load from json text fields , can be massive but are displayed in their entirety in the text field .

    This is what project files are for. You shouldn't paste large amounts of data in to event sheets. It's also less efficient at runtime.

    [quote:2iq3zxij]*In some cases changes to variables are not reflected in the editor action bars. but are there when action is opened

    see video

    Please also file a bug for that.

    In general if something isn't working right, file an issue for it, and if it's a suggestion, post it at https://construct3.ideas.aha.io/. These are better systems for tracking bugs and features, since the forum is high-volume and it's easy for posts to get lost or forgotten about.

  • Cool, closing as fixed in r250 then.

  • Well professional game designers probably won't downscale or essentially "cripple" their games so that they work on every desktop PC, since as I've said later on in another post: "Only difference being that most game engines offer more advanced tools in order to work with high-res assets".

    Given that modern mobile devices have about the same resolution as desktop devices (e.g. physical display size is ~1920x1080 or so), what additional tools for working with different resolution assets do you think are necessary?

  • As far as I'm aware, only NW.js 0.27 is affected, and the issue is in NW.js itself so we don't need to change C2 when it's fixed, just issue a new NW.js update.

  • Please keep it civil folks or the thread will be locked.

    I made a few changes to improve startup time in r250. Is it better now?
