  • Ah, sorry, I forgot that option is only in the latest beta releases. It's not there in the latest stable release, but it will be there in the next stable release, which should be out in the next month or so.

  • I was just looking over some other similar comments and I fixed the Ctrl+F focus for popup window for the next beta.

    I haven't seen a crash happen with a lot of search results myself, but I can imagine if you search for "a" and it tries to return tens of thousands of results it might crash. I think the best thing to do is limit the maximum number of results... maybe 5000? I doubt anyone would really want to trawl through a longer list and it is important to avoid a crash if possible.

  • Your two options are "flat" and "folders" in the "Export file structure" project property (in Advanced section), but to be honest "flat" is only there for backwards compatibility and "folders" is the best option. There is not currently any support in Construct for loading different resources from different places outside its own folder. For one thing, that could break your project, if you do things like load resources by a string of their URL relative to the project.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

  • I would say it's most likely a false positive. You should report it to the antivirus vendor.

    Are you using an NW.js export? The filename mentioned is part of the Chromium browser engine and not actually part of Construct itself.

  • In Construct 3 I would recommend using only WebM Opus. That is one format that works on all platforms and avoids all the problems that came with having dual-encoding.

  • I just checked this - we did some maintenance on the build server yesterday but part of the configuration wasn't updated. I just updated it so it should work now. Apologies for the inconvenience.

  • You can play audio from a URL using the Add remote URL action. There's more information in the Audio manual entry.

  • Construct will remember your login and settings as long as the browser does. Check your browser settings or if you have some kind of extension that clears data. For example if you have something that clears all cookies every day, that will also clear your Construct login and settings.

  • This doesn't really make any sense as there were no changes to Android exports between r308 and r308.2 - the update was mainly about fixing a few issues with the editor.

    In general it's impossible to help unless you can file an issue following all the guidelines, as we need all those details to be able to investigate.

  • My hope was to simply have zip files of each of the games that I could download and run locally.

    Construct games work offline once they've loaded. So serving from HTTPS doesn't sound all that different to just downloading and loading zips. So maybe you could just use a server after all?

    Im curious though, you mentioned not supporting the file:// protocol, but isnt the macos * ios exports utilizing that?

    Not any more - we moved to an app: scheme using WKURLSchemeHandler a couple of years ago to get off the restrictions of the file: protocol. Even before that, we had tons of ugly compatibility code in Cordova mode to handle all the problems of running on file:.

  • You can't load projects over the file: protocol. So many things get blocked for security reasons it won't load at all. There are quite a few significant changes that need to be made to get it to load.

    Why not use the built-in iOS export? That loads the game in WKWebView and handles all of this for you.

  • There's no limit other than how fast the host running Remote Preview can upload. However once the project has finished loading, the bandwidth requirement is minimal. So it will be much more likely you can handle lots of peers if they load at different times (so the upload happens one at a time), rather than at the same time (which means uploading to multiple peers simultaneously).
