  That code does not appear to be part of Construct - presumably it's part of your own script. It looks like it has some kind of mistake in it which means Closure Compiler can't parse it.

  Use the float(str) or int(str) system expressions to convert strings to numbers so you can compare them numerically.

  You're probably running in to the cross-domain request security restrictions imposed by browsers (aka CORS). See the AJAX manual entry for more details.

  Bluetooth should work in the Chrome browser on Android. It's specifically the WebView on Android that does not currently support it.

  The server is returning 404 Not Found for the URL. So it looks like you've set something up wrong and it is requesting a nonexistent URL, or the server ought to be sending a response.

  It looks like your version of Chrome is out of date. Try installing any available updates.

  I meant web content can't change the actual browser user agent.

  You can override the local JavaScript string in navigator.userAgent but it just overwrites it for the current page, it doesn't actually change the browser user agent.

  Bots that customise the user agent string do it by altering the browser itself. I don't think normal web pages have that control. So I think it's impossible from JS code.

  I don't think browsers actually allow this. I think it could cause a lot of compatibility and security issues if pages could arbitrarily change the browser user agent.

  If you want to specify some extra data to handle on the server side, usually you'd do that with query string parameters or POST data.

  It looks like you tried to open it from disk (it's referencing a file:// URL). That won't work, you have to upload it to a web server first.

  It looks like Cordova does now support project names starting with a number, so I removed the restriction for the next beta.

  Press F12 and check the browser console for errors. Often it's just that you forgot to upload some files.

  The relevant line regarding total memory usage in that dialog is this:

  Estimated peak memory usage is 109mb due to largest layout animation 1

  If you installed the app from a beta release, then that installed app will always load the latest beta. If you installed the app from a stable release, then you'll always get the latest stable release.

  I would guess you installed the app from a beta release but you instead want a stable release, in which case you should uninstall it then install it again from the stable release by visiting https://editor.construct.net.

  By default Construct only updates you to stable releases.

  You'll only get beta releases if you opt in to them in Settings. If you don't want to get beta releases, make sure you change the settings so you are not notified about betas.

  We're aware that example projects are not working in r294 - it is mentioned in the release notes. It's a somewhat complicated issue with the release system, and we're looking in to it.
