  • The First-person platformer example sounds like it covers that.

  • There are three problems in addon.json: the first two are the website and documentation fields are left empty, but they are required; the third is that the category is set to "visual", but that is not one of the valid category options.

    Use an editor like VS Code that understands the JSON schema - it provides validation for all these requirements, and all three are highlighted as problems when editing your addon.json file.

  • You should use 'Wait for previous actions to complete', not 'Wait 0 seconds', as you want to make sure the previous actions have actually finished. If you wait for any fixed amount of time, there is still no guarantee the previous actions have actually finished.

    Construct 2 did not have any official Drawing Canvas plugin - that was only introduced in Construct 3. If you were using a different third-party plugin then please note it's not something we're responsible for.

  • Thanks for sharing the project file - I was able to identify it is indeed a regression from the r426 release due to a spritesheeting optimization (originally stemming from issue 8427). I've come up with a fix and we will probably do another stable release patch for this as it's a regression since the last stable release, but I think that would not be out until next week at this point. In the mean time hopefully you are OK continuing to work in the previous stable release r424.2.

  • Anyway this is what was happening in my project, where I happened to have a notes file that started with a "!"

    It's easy to test a script file with a "!" in the name in a new project, and it does indeed to cause an error. I filed this issue about that.

  • It's difficult to provide any help from just a video. If you file an issue following all the guidelines, or at least share a project file demonstrating the problem, it may be possible to help.

  • It looks like you also already posted this here, where I already responded. As per the Forum & Community guidelines please don't cross-post like that - it's already fragmented the conversation.

  • Do you mean peer IDs? Those are short strings of random characters (not a number).

    The signalling server only guarantees that peer IDs are unique for everyone currently connected to the server. An ID may well be re-used for someone else in future after they disconnect from the signalling server. As actual data connections are peer-to-peer and those can run without a connection to the signalling server, it's also possible there are two active peers with the same peer ID. The likelihood of that is based on the length of IDs as that is how many possible combinations there are; currently the signalling server uses four characters which isn't that many (1-2 million combinations, so not enough to rule out collisions).

  • If you run in to a problem please file an issue following all the guidelines, as we need all that information to be able to help. Notably that includes a project file demonstrating the issue which this post doesn't appear to include, and without it there's little we can do.

  • It's difficult to help from just scattered internet reports - often these combine multiple separate issues, and in fact your linked thread claims the issue is resolved in iOS 17.1 in the last post, so if it still happens in newer iOS versions, either that thread is talking about some other issue, or the information is incorrect.

    I've been doing this a long time and it's generally not possible to help without clearer information, so if you'd like us to properly investigate this, please file an issue following all the guidelines, which ensures we have everything we need to be able to help.

  • I've never heard of that problem and it's difficult to help without knowing why it's happening. Would you be able to share a project that demonstrates the problem happening?

  • The crash appears to be caused by a browser extension, as the crash message includes chrome-extension://ihcjicgdanjaechkgeegckofjjedodee. The extension ID appears to be that of the Malwarebytes Browser Guard.

    Unfortunately there's not much we can do about browser extensions that interfere with Construct and break it - either remove the browser extension or report the problem to the browser extension developer.
