  • set animation speed to 0

  • The object is placed only inside the tutorial layout and it is global, never destroyed and never recreated.

    When i switch layouts with a global object, does it reload all assets into memory?

  • Ok i've isolated the problem, my main character has 15 animation, 16 frames each, 512x512 size and he will have more.

    If i remove all the animations and leave just one (i didn't try to see where is the breaking point), it runs smoothly.

    I know it's a lot, but i have a I5 3.4GHz processor and 16GB of ram, this should be a walk in the park and it does works good in preview mode.

    Ashley Do you have any suggestions? maybe load the animations on the fly from a url?

    A preload/load on demand property for animations within the sprites would be great for issues like this.

  • I tried rounding the values, didn't help

  • zenox98 Thanks for testing and i am glad you liked it!

    Ashely I tried it in firefox, same jitters, on IE it doesn't load at all, but i don't really mind.

    What really baffles me is that it doesn't happens when i preview the project, in preview it runs smoothly, is there any difference in rendering between preview and export?

  • I tested it on two machines, I didn't try ie or Firefox since nodewebkit is chrome based but ull try when I'll be next to a computer.

    How does the node version runs on your machine?

  • Ashley It happens in both, just more severe in nodewebkit which is the platform I want the final product to run on.

    I am not home now and I didn't upload the 181 version, but here's the 180 one which works the same:

  • Ashley I update the link with an export from 181r, it still happens (it's more severe in node-webkit, on 180 as well).

  • No i didn't see there was a 181 version, downloading it now!

    GREAT feature addon - global layer, brilliant!

  • I have a strange problem with jittering while scrolling, the strangest thing is that this does not happens when previewing the project from the capx, only after exporting to html5 or node-webkit.

    I am printing the fps to the browser log, when i walk to the edge of the screen the scene scrolls, when previewing fps remains on a steady 60, after export there are some small drops but nothing below 55, i don't know why, but still it's high enough, it shouldn't jitter.

    The other strange thing is after i scroll a few times back and forth, it stops jitter and remains on a steady 60 fps.

    Has anyone encountered this problem or have any suggestion on how to fix this?

    Here is an online link of the game, press skip (to skip tutorial, then walk around in the house).

    oh and my scrolling event is:

    scroll to

    lerp(scrollx, scrollToX, 1*dt)

    lerp(scrolly, actor_joe.Y, 1*dt)

    scrollToX is var i change when i need to push the camera around.

    In this case when the actor is at a certain distance from the edge of the viewport.

  • I overcomed a similar issue (with swiping inside an iframe)

    by adding a css rule

    position:fixed;

  • as i said before, have a var named level

    and check in the tag

    if music&level is not playing

    stop all

    play "music"&level with tag "music"&level

    than if you die and restart the same level the event will not be called.

    and if the level changes the music will stop and play the new music with a new tag
