  OK, well, this really needs to get fixed. No point having a build out that crashes all the time for lots of people.

  If anyone can get a stack trace with the most recent EXEs above, that would be really handy. If it crashes for you and you're technologically inclined, fire up windbg, attach it to Construct's process, get it to crash, then open a stack trace. (You need the .pdbs next to the EXE to get it to load symbols otherwise it's all just memory addresses.) Paste it here and that's really good information to help solve the problem.

  I've updated the list with expressions added in recent builds, including lerp.

  Hmm, OK - have a look here and let me know if that fixes it. I'm really hoping that does the trick :-\</p>

  OK, I think I've got it! I found a nasty double-release of fonts in the layer between plugins and the renderer. Ugly. That would explain R0J0's stack trace and the other crashes.

  If this doesn't fix it I think I'll cry

  Anyways, try downloading these files and pasting over 28.3, and let me know if it works.

  Hmm... maybe there were multiple causes. Thanks for the stack trace, very handy, will investigate further...

  Download Construct 2 public preview 28.3

  Link to release 28.2

  I mainly want to make sure the crash-on-close bug is fixed, since that's a pretty bad one. If it is, great! Some other fixes made it in too.

  Changelog

  • [CHANGE] Can launch the pay-what-you-want dialog from the About dialog
  • [CHANGE] Keyboard input when the keyboard object is present does not reach the browser - e.g. pressing up/down will not scroll the browser window.

  [s:22niv0jg]- [FIX] Crash-on-exit should - hopefully - be fixed (let me know if it works/doesn't work)[/s:22niv0jg] (fixed in 28.4)

  • [FIX] Event wizard list control grouping works in Windows XP now
  • [FIX] Sometimes object expressions in conditions returned 0 (fixes 'compare instance variable' with another instance variable)

  I think I'll just push out a 28.3 and see if there are reports of any more crashes.

  HTML5 does support touch input through javascript - but I don't have a touch device, so I'm a little stuck there

  Hey all,

  Would be really nice if you could put a positive ranking on SourceForge for the project (assuming you like it ):

  http://sourceforge.net/projects/construct2/reviews/

  You don't need to be logged in, you can just click 'Yes'. If you are logged in you also have the option to post a review, but you don't have to.

  Thanks!

  Yeah, you want a non-layout non-single-global plugin type for Array, which unfortunately there isn't support for right now...

  Edit: did you also try setting "type": "object" in the plugin settings?

  Aha, I managed to reproduce it on my XP VM, and made a change that seems to fix it for that - try downloading this and pasting over your 28.2. Let me know if this fixes it!
