Notes
It's a new stable release of Construct! If you're updating from the last stable release r344.2, then this update includes changes from r345, r346, r347, r348 and r349. Highlights include:
⭐ A new File System plugin allowing access to local files and folders (currently only supported in desktop Chromium-based browsers/exports)
⭐ Use 3D image points with the new ability to retrieve image points on all faces of 3D shape, as well as with 3D mesh distortion
⭐ BBcode range tagging allows tagging specific parts of Text and SpriteFont objects, allowing detecting hovers or clicks on those areas, as well as getting the size and position of the range
⭐ Android exports have been updated to support target SDK 33 (Android 13), as well as updating Mobile IAP to use Google Play Billing library v5, both soon to be required
⭐ The performance of zooming/scaling Text objects has been significantly improved, as well as when editing complex timelines
⭐ The NW.js export option now supports the Apple Silicon architecture
⭐ WebGPU is now supported on an opt-in basis for some platforms. See the blog post Introducing Construct's new WebGPU renderer for more details!
⭐ There are 10 new examples you can find in the 'New' section of the Example Browser
⭐ Lots more, including bug fixes, usability improvements, other performance improvements, and more! See all the intervening beta release notes for full details.
