  You should wrap the whole thing in quotation marks then if there's a space in the path.

  """" & NodeWebkit.AppFolder & "dxwebsetup.exe"""

  There was a change in r141 to the way strings are compared.

  Like naelian says, you're running the actions in event 107 way more times then necessary. In tutorial level when the 'Pulse' animation finishes, event 107 runs 26 times. That's 26 * 13 objects * however many instances of each that need to have their animation set. The animation name is "Default" and you're setting it to "default" (lower-case 'd').

  The code that compares strings to see if "default" == "Default" needs to be called hundreds of times in 1 tick. In r139 it was fast so you didn't notice it. In r141 it was changed and it freezes up (in Chrome only?). You'll see if you set the animation to "Default" instead of "default" there's no freeze.

  Here's a simplified capx that highlights the problem: setAnimationCases.capx

  It looks the same to me in Firefox and Chrome.

  There was a change in 141 with animations and time scale. Must be related to that.

  Bug Fix

  Sprite: animations would sometimes advance a frame sooner than they ought to when changing the timescale

  You have a 26MB folder called 'Sai 1.1.0 + brushes' inside that capx. Plus a shortcut to Photoshop among other things :) I guess everything in the project folder gets put into the capx when you do save as single file?

  That's how containers work. If you create one of the objects then it automatically creates all of the other objects in the container.

  "Parent" and "child" are kind of misleading names. A container is a group of objects. You have a group of 2 objects - a red sprite and a green sprite. When you run the layout you get 4 groups - 1 red and 1 green in each. If you want a group of 5 objects, you need to make 4 separate green objects and add them all to the container.

  With the Browser object and the javascript btoa() function:

  base64encode.capx (r140)

  I'm pretty sure there's a 3rd party plugin that does it as well.

  The behaviors that interact with solid are 8-direction, platform, car and bullet (with bounce off solids enabled). If your enemies don't have one of those behaviors for movement then you'll need to handle collisions with solid objects yourself.

  I just set the text to blank and then append the 4 letters in the loop. If you didn't set the text to "" first you'd be continuously adding letters onto the end of the string.

  You could add the the letters to a variable and then set the text equal to that variable if you wanted to do it that way.

  Use a global variable to track if the level is over or not and only spawn the blood if level is not finished.
