  I agree that this would be a nice feature. Perhaps something to save a particular backup on preview, so that you don't auto-save a mistake you notice when previewing on your main save. Graphics card bugs or not, Construct 2 is pretty crashy on my computer, and it would be very helpful to have such a feature.

  Hey I hope I don't come off too obnoxious double posting...

  Anyway I updated the instructions for the game, because the original "lack of description" was a bit of a failed experiment that I learned from for future designs.

  I appreciate your thoughts, as this is my first game, and I am soon going to school to learn game programming and design (where we will also design many of our own games as projects).

  Hopefully that clears things up. OK, I promise not to bump anymore. Thanks all.

  Hello everyone, for the past couple months I've been working on my still unnamed game. The game is slated for release the first week of June.

  Hey all, I think I found a really nice and smooth way to do this. My code looks like this:

  lerp(LayoutScale, min(WindowHeight, WindowWidth) / (distance(sprite1.ImagePointX(0), sprite1.ImagePointY(0), sprite2.ImagePointX(0), sprite2.ImagePointY(0)) + (max(sprite1.Width, sprite1.Height) + max(sprite2.Width, sprite2.Height)) / 2 ) * 0.70, 0.5 * dt)

  The 0.7 is how much you want the "default zoom" to be, and the 0.5 controls the speed of the zoom.

  I use the above formula with these scrolling values for System: Scroll to Position:

  X: lerp(scrollx, (sprite1.ImagePointX(0) + sprite2.ImagePointX(0)) / 2, 0.7 * dt)

  Y: lerp(scrolly, (sprite1.ImagePointY(0) + sprite2.ImagePointY(0)) / 2, 0.7 * dt)

  Let me know how this works for you guys and if it's just overcomplicated.
