Huge preloading time load due to sprites packaging

Hi devs, I am facing huge preloading time due to custom animations on loader layout. Problem is that construct 3 is packaging the loader layout images with other images in bigger chunks that are not referenced anywhere on the loader layout.

These bigger chunks are loaded during the preloading before the custom loader is displayed.

Is there any way to prevent the construct 3 from packaging the loader layout images with other images that are supposed to be loaded on loader layout instead of in preloading stage. Pardon for typos.

Thanks

You can set a smaller spritesheet size in project properties.

Hi dop2000, thanks for reply but it does not solve the problem. Imagine if I have 10 different sprites on custom loading screen for animation purpose but they are packaged in 6-8 different chunks with other sprites, it will still be a lot of overhead.

I understand, but I don't think there is anything else you can do.

Try posting a suggestion, maybe it will get enough votes to be implemented:
