  IIRC it's always been there, ever since we first added support for app bundles.

  All the conditions are in the same event block, so it will only be true when you hold all those keys down, in which case it will run all the actions and similate all controls at once. You should split those out in to separate event blocks.

  There's already an option to build a signed app bundle in Construct, too.

  Premultiplied alpha is an internal detail and you shouldn't need to worry about it at all. Just import normal images (with unpremultiplied alpha) and Construct sorts out whether or not they get premultiplied.

  It's not clear from those images that the problem is anything to do with premultiplied alpha anyway. It looks like maybe the effect is made of two images, and you only imported one.

  Your last post has a different error message, so looks like an unrelated issue.

  I am pretty sure that if you get an error writing to storage, it's because the browser settings have been changed to block storage.

  Usually if you have a block of repetitive conditions like that, there's a better way to do it without the repetition. For example lots of conditions with an incrementing number could be replaced by a single read from an array. But it depends on exactly what you're doing, which isn't shown in your post.

  It should still work with Visual Studio 2017. This tutorial describes how to export. It does not work in Visual Studio 2019 because Microsoft dropped support for it in that version, which is one of the reasons we're removing it: it looks like Microsoft are retiring it themselves.

  These days most Construct users who publish to console go via third-party porting companies.

  That error ("A mutation operation was attempted on a database...") is what you get when you disable websites being able to store any data locally in Firefox settings. I think the option is called "never remember history" or something, or it might be some other tracking prevention feature. If you block any website storing data, then your project can't store any data either.

  It's actually saved to IndexedDB (a different subfolder), but as noted it's stored in an internal database format, so there's nothing much useful you can find in File Explorer.

  I'm afraid I don't think browsers provide a way to turn off antialiasing. You'd have to use a SpriteFont.

  Method 2 is correct: you should zip the folder contents, rather than the folder itself. In the zip, the files should be at the root, not in a subfolder in the zip. You don't need to rename it to .c3p either, it should still open just as a .zip. That's what I did with your project and it worked.

  The functions feature was redesigned back in early to mid 2019. So it's been working like this a while!

  It looks like there's a bug in Chrome that causes it to fail to access files in folder-based projects that have '~' in the name. You can zip the whole folder and open it as a single-file project successfully, so you can use that to work around it. Then you should be able to rename anything with '~' in the name to not use that character any more, and then save it as a folder-based project again.

  I think it needs 1 or 2 lines of code changes to support JavaScript Modules. Contact the addon developer and refer them to this update from November.
