  • Thank you for responding.

    The correct action is not forward. When I said "navigate back to the game", I didn't mean hit the back button. I've updated the original post to be clearer.

    I think those navigation features should definitely be removed if they don't work. They are misleading. What I ended up doing was having the browser navigate to a URL and directing it to Browser.Referrer. That's essentially the same thing.

  • Hey all,

    I'm wondering if there's a way to load a specific layout via a url or hash after exporting to HTML5.

    For example, say your game is at mygame.com. Browsing to mygame.com will bring up your default first layout but browsing to mygame.com#alternate or mygame.com?layout=alternate would bring up another layout.

    It would still load your whole application but the first layout would be determined in the url. It seems like there should be a way to do this since previewing the game starts on whichever layout your were last editing.

    Currently, I'm considering some kind of hack where I make the first layout invisible, set a variable to the browser's url, inspect that then load another layout. I'm not sure if this will actually work and was wondering if there's a simpler way of doing this.

    Anyone else run into this? Please let me know. Thanks.
