Notes

This release includes another big set of bug fixes, as well as some various usability improvements across the editor. We've also added three new examples demonstrating the capabilities of the new HTML element plugin. For example you can use a HTML table to display tables of results such as high-scores - take a look at the new HTML table example to see that in action. There's a huge range of possibilities with it providing you know a little HTML and CSS!

Over the next few weeks we'll be starting to focus on reliability as we work towards a new stable release. Stay tuned for more updates and happy testing!

  • Many Thanks to the dev team for fixing up the Animations Editor!

    The bounding box, and image points reverting back to where they were originally. Was causing a large amount of wasted time for me. I was not sure it was a bug, or just something in the environment of my system.

  • Yeah!! Thanks for the sample projects for the HTML plugin!

  • Thank you for adding cut/copy/paste frames in the frames panel. Now please consider the same at animation set.

  • Thank you for the new examples !

    construct3-21h2.ideas.aha.io/ideas/C321H2-I-270

    I suggested an idea to allow HTML Elements and other form controls Plugins (Button/Sliderbars and so on) to be rendered in the Game Canvas as other objects so it's not rendered on top of everything else as it does right now. That would open up an infinity of possibilites in addition to those recent updates on HTML Plugin !

    I think it's already more or less how the Text Object works

  • What's the point of using Vanishing, I'm not sure to understand?

    Great update as well :)

    • It seems to be a way to adjust the vanishing point, via System Expressions. When using a 3D Camera for a three dimensional view to a game. Or even just setting objects to different distances in a 2D game, by adjusting their "Z elevation". Such as setting parallaxing backgrounds to different distances, or even changing where objects are relative to their current Z elevation.
