Notes

It's a new stable release of Construct! If you're updating from the last stable release r368.2, then this update includes changes from r369, r370, r371, r372, r372.2, r373, r373.2, r374, r375, r376, r377 and r378. Highlights include:

⭐ A new Xbox UWP exporter and an Xbox Live UWP plugin for integration! For more background see this blog post and this follow-up blog post.

⭐ A major new Flowcharts feature, also with a new Flowchart Controller plugin, allowing designing things like RPG conversation trees, questionnaires, state machines and more with a visual editor.

HTML layers now allow for other objects, like Sprite and Particles, to appear on top of HTML elements (such as buttons, text inputs and HTML element objects).

⭐ You can now change what the main 'Preview' button does by clicking the dropdown arrow next to it, such as to switch it to the 'Debug layout' option. There's also a new 'Debug project' option.

⭐ The Text object now supports right-to-left (RTL) text, and a new 'outlineback' BBcode tag to draw outlines underneath the text.

Sprite now allows for passing an animation frame tag to the 'Set animation frame' action

⭐ An impressive 28 new example projects you can find in the 'new' section of the Example Browser

⭐ Loads more improvements including bug fixes, usability improvements, performance optimizations, and many more other additions! See all the intervening beta release notes for full details.

We'll be starting a new beta release cycle soon. If you'd like to help test it, try the beta release opt-in: choose Notify me about updates for beta releases in Settings. Stay tuned for more updates!

    This is a great release! Thank you for flow charts and HTML layers. One disappointment I have though is you can't create cycles in flow charts. A child node should be able to connect back to one of it's parents. You stated in the video that there will be more improvements to flow charts coming, so hopefully that will be one of them. Thanks.

  • Even though not major features, collision cell size and the CollisionEngine scripting interface where the highlights of this release cycle to me!

    Looking forward to the next beta!

  • Lots of interesting new releases, but the best one that overall save lots of times, is the custom preview button. It's unbelievable how much time a simple thing like this will save.

    Thank you!

  • Wohoo new Stable!

  • Honestly, the single best new feature is the ability to define what the "Run" button does... that will save me literally minutes of heartache.

  • Thank you!

  • Awesome update as usual, thanks for all your hard work!

  • 😍😍😍

  • Great work! Thanks for the update!
