Notes

As noted in the previous release, we are now aiming to stabilise Construct with a view to get a new stable release out early next year. Therefore the rate of changes will slow down to focus on bug fixes and other minor improvements, but rest assured there's plenty more we're working on behind the scenes for the next release cycle.

This is likely to be our last release of the year, since most of our staff will be off for the winter holidays over the next few weeks enjoying a well-earned break. Please note that due to this there may be a couple of weeks of slow support responses (including email, bug reports, and the forum). We'll be back to business as usual by early January!

  • AND it still hasn't fixed the orbit behavior on platformers, and now my 8dir player 1 in his topdown dungeon COASTS after the direction control ceases. No full-stop, always COASTS, continues in last direction pushed at consistent speed, around 50 pixels per second. This on a Windows 7 64bit and latest Firefox, whether previewed in Firefox or in "dialog". I haven't the option to use other browsers anymore, it seems.

    Yes, C3 is still broken. I don't use it, I just wanted to check back to it. Back to C2, unless your company revokes my license out of retaliation.

    Last I spoke with your tech support, they said that all bugs must be reported to your Github outlet. That's just weird. It would best explain why these bugs aren't being fixed, and why Construct hasn't been stable or useable since v262. I'll say it loud and clear, I would support either drug-ridden mismanagement, or corporate sabotage- as in, employees bringing the company down from inside. Yes Minister's "Pigs' Breakfast"?

      We do routinely fix bugs posted to our issue tracker here: https://github.com/Scirra/Construct-3-bugs/issues

      I can't see any open issues relating to the issue you described. As we recommended from support, if you file an issue there, we will take a look. In many cases it can be fixed for the next release. It's also common it's a misunderstanding or misinterpretation of features and so is not actually a bug - we can't tell until a report is made though. Please note the bug report guidelines, since we need all that information to be able to help.

      I'd also point out C2 does not have the Orbit behavior - it is specific to C3, so if you downgrade to C2, that feature will simply be missing.

    • I think a 100% I'll stick with Construct2 cause its better way better than Construct3 , I tried C3 but its missing some important things like plugins and it has a lot but lot of unfixing bugs,

      Ashley we need the old Construct2 style on C3 , Construct 2 has better features than C3 , We need privacy and we need to work off a Browser and Offline !!!! Lets make Construct2 Great Again !!!!!!! and we need port to the new Consoles >>> Nintendo Switch ect,,,

      Those threads actually confirm that C3 does work offline, as it always has.

      • Well I read them and all and all I can see it is a lot of person with the same problem as it doesn't work Construct3 offline !!! Doesn't work

        The big issue here it is that every week or so you need to be online for updates, I read that on a lot of forums plus I read today one of your forums about this topic and a guy wrote this>> Doesn't work , plus a lot of Contruct developers are posting about this problem all over the Construct Forums>>> Come on Ashley make Construct Great again !!! I'm willing to pay even $300 for a lifetime Construct 3 software.
