Hello All,

I have a basic question. I know that HTML5 is treating differently by each browser, so I'm wondering if the .exe format of the game will be a lot smoother?

I'm having some issues with the following project:

If you notice, platformer doesn't always sit exactly on the moving platformers. There is always 1 - 2 pixels of overlap or offset. With a .exe file, will this be refined to have the collision honor at exact pixels?

The .exe will be the same as if you run the project in Chrome as thats what the exe wrapper uses.

Thanks spongehammer. That's exactly the information I was looking for, but not the answer I was hoping for.

ephrisian Maybe you just need to change the collsion polygon? It has nothing at all to do with export.

Hey Sqiddster,

I'd love to make the change, but I'm not using any physics in my game. If you notice in the .capx, it's all Solid and Platformer behavior.

Is there any other solution besides using Physics?

Collision polygon sqiddster refers to doesn't really have anything to do with physics behavior. What he means is, going to iamge editor for each object, and checking that their collision polygon (the icon at the bottom of toolbar) is what you want it to be. Your 'movingTileUpDown' has some funky going on with it's polygon.

Well don't that beat all? Thanks for the pointer! That fixed it! I didn't know that feature/function existed.

Thanks to all of you for your help! I was able to get past the difficulties and I've updated the game with new graphics and a few small mechanics.

Give it a whirl and let me know what you think
