How do I de-activate sleep mode in my HTML5 game?

Hello there,

as written in the other question, I´m currently developing a little point tracker/companion for an offline game.

Unfortunately, whenever I run it on mobile, my mobile´s sleep mode kicks in when I don´t touch it for a while.

How can one disable that as long as the page is executed?

Looking forward to your answers. And thanks in advance!

Best,

Robin

Try using the Platform Info object's 'Request wake lock' action.

Hey Ashley,

Wishing you peace, love, and joy this Christmas.

Try using the Platform Info object's 'Request wake lock' action.

I tried that but it does not work I guess... I mean... is this all I have to do?

From the manual entry:

A wake lock might only be granted in a user input trigger, such as On touch end.

It's like with audio playback - you can't automatically do it on startup in a web browser to prevent abuse.

Ohh interesting.

Will test that! Thanks Ashley.
