It should save to the same location you last saved to. If it doesn't, please file a bug.

Cloud save is as fast as the cloud service. Maybe you should try a different service?

You don't have to keep downloading copies either, you can always just save to the browser local storage and cloud save at the end.

> Last I checked, most browsers could v-sync reliably to within 0.1ms. I'd be interested in any .capx examples I can try out. It's also important to say which browser and OS you're testing on.

On my Windows 10 PC it shows consistently one color. It drops a drame about once every ten seconds. That's about the same as our old native engine in Construct Classic managed. So we have reached parity with native.

(Why would a native engine drop frames? The OS has dozens of threads to schedule, and sometimes it might just schedule some work somewhere else and miss a 16ms frame deadline. Often if you go fullscreen the OS boosts the process priority and this happens less.)

...and "Letterbox integer scale" fullscreen mode, to avoid fractional scaling.

"Letterbox scale" fullscreen mode can distort pixel art because it allows fractional zoom levels, e.g. 2.7x scale.

That's what "Letterbox integer scale" is for - use that for pixel art.

Well, I posted that about eight years ago, but I think I meant just a simple subtraction between the current mouse position and the last mouse position gives you the change.

Why not just implement the collision flag yourself in a boolean instance variable? Ignore the condition if the boolean is false, and you have a per-instance, per-event way to handle collisions.

Overlap is a collision check, so if you turn off collision checks, all collision checks are ignored and return false. That is by design.

Construct has a really well optimised collision engine, generally it's not necessary to disable collisions to improve performance.

I think Arial is one of the safe fonts that is more or less ubiquitous. If a font is missing the system will pick a different font and use that instead. Construct 3 lets you import web fonts which guarantees a consistent display.

You can block other sites from framing your game with the X-Frame-Options HTTP header or the frame-ancestors Content Security Policy directive. So there are existing mechanisms you can use to, say, only allow your site to display your game in an iframe.
