  On start of layout the first time through a particular layout, the game is saved:

  [attachment=2:3dzrudk2][/attachment:3dzrudk2]

  Then loaded by hitting the retry button:

  [attachment=1:3dzrudk2][/attachment:3dzrudk2]

  Before the save and load, only one spriter object gets associated with each collision sprite:

  [attachment=0:3dzrudk2][/attachment:3dzrudk2]

  My game runs perfectly but when I save and load the save, certain aspects of the game break. I have spriter objects set to collision sprites every tic by this behavior:

  [attachment=2:3id0wtaj][/attachment:3id0wtaj]

  The collision sprites are created and then the spriter objects are created and associated with these behaviors:

  [attachment=1:3id0wtaj][/attachment:3id0wtaj]

  [attachment=0:3id0wtaj][/attachment:3id0wtaj]

  Here's a tutorial I wrote on the subject: https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/1042/how-to-design-your-game-to-easily-fit-any-screen-size. For a resolution, I'm using 1600x900 so it'll even look good on full-sized screens. If you're mostly concerned about performance, you can either set it to a lower resolution or allow the player to change the resolution to something lower if they need to: https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/1258/change-your-game-resolution

  10.5 still runs better for me. Smooth as butter, baby!

  I have been running r190 as well. The regular preview is working perfectly so I'm not too concerned at this point.

  TiAm - thanks. It happens every time when I start the debugger with node webkit selected as the preview browser. Chrome starts like normal.

  megatronx - agreed. What I want in C3 is for C2 to keep being improved and supported. What would anyone on these threads have to gain by C2 being abandoned and having to fork out more money for the next version? Think about it.

  When I run the debugger in node webkit 10.5, I get this error, does anyone know what it's about? Thanks, Morgan.

  lucid - a couple of thoughts - today I was thinking it would be cool if you could put a background image in the spriter window (perhaps jpg to keep the file small?). That would allow you to export gifs and screenshots with more interesting, context appropriate backgrounds. The other question is, using character maps, would it be possible to spawn say a certain type of enemy and randomize which body parts are used, making a great variation in the enemies would look? One last thing - I'm still wanting to be able to change effects applied to particular instances. That would allow me to create much more variety just by, for instance, changing the hue of an enemy character. It would allow for easy creation of bosses, etc. Thanks, Morgan.

  Because I don't want to have to learn coding! I like the interface and it lets me focus on my strong points more - art and music.

  Um, instead of moving on to C3, how about integrating any upgrades into C2 so my $135 isn't thrown away.
