  Do you create / destroy object often ?

  I wonder if it's the garbage collector kicks in and causing the stutter because of that.

  If you did, I'd have a set number of objects and keep reusing it, instead of create / destroy.

  For example once the bullet go off screen, move the same bullet in the new position instead of destroying & spawning new bullet.

  This probably old news for you but I just knew that

  using Cocos2D-Js it's possible to use javascript to create 100% native app (no more wrapper - no more CocoonJS/XDK/Ejecta/ NodeWebKit ? )

  I know this topic about exporter has been beaten to death already,

  so I'll just put it right here in case it's worth considering <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink">

  You need to move your "Every 0.05 seconds" outside of function and put it on the main game loop.

  Like so :

  I did a simple test with function reading & modify 2 array at the same time (array & player inside container similar to your setup).

  When I press "RIGHT ARROW" & "D" simultaneously, the function can read & modify both array at the same time just fine.

  I attach the capx & screenshot, not sure if this will help but I hope it can give you some idea to fix yours.

  Rex, occasionally the trigger "On MoveTo HIT TARGET" is triggered even when the X,Y Position of the object is different from the target.

  (I'm using the latest MoveTo plugin you posted on 1st page & Construct r168)

  The screenshot and the capx to repro the bug is on attachment.

  Try to click Area A & B back and forth really quick several times to repro it, then check the console afterward

  btw, thanks again for this awesome plugin.

  blackhornet font like these would benefit from "no-aliasing" option I guess:

  I'm using your Sprite Font generator v1.12 and so far it still works great <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy">

  DatapawWolf you can use version 1.12 and it still has feature to disable aliasing, it works fine last time I tried it.

  I think blackhornet explain it in here about the missing aliasing feature on v2:

  In fact I filed this as a bug long time ago when C2 is still version 109 (Nov 12, 2012), but I guess it got buried.

  It's better to buy directly from Scirra.

  Also:

  Individuals can use their license on as many computers as they like, as long as they are the only one who uses it
