Construct supports different refresh rates, but sometimes you also need to adjust your game logic to support this. See the tutorial delta-time and framerate independence.

Deprecated does not mean broken, it just means scheduled for removal in future. It should still be working. If something is not currently working, please file an issue following the guidelines.

I'm aware an update will be necessary in future. We will try to address it soon. However please note we're a small team with limited resources, and work on Mobile Advert is particularly time-consuming and difficult.

GameSoul - I don't believe that code is valid syntax.

Do I just need to convert this.peer to globalThis.Peer?

this.peer does not refer to a global variable. If you have to ask a question like this, I think you need to learn more about the basics of the JavaScript language. There are plenty of resources for that on the web.

I don't think it's a bug. The number of collision poly points will necessarily increase to handle mesh distortion. However your project file does not handle a varying number of poly points - it looks like it only creates a fixed number on startup and ignores changes to PolyPointCount.

That's odd. You should file that as an issue.

I can't find any other limit in the source code, so I don't know why there would be a change at 0.01 specifically.

Fractional (floating-point) calculations are never exact on CPUs. It's something that affects all software development on all devices. In cases like this, you should not rely on exact numbers, and instead use ranges (e.g. >= 90) or small tolerances (e.g. within 0.1 of 90, although that will probably not be reliable in this case either, as fast rotate speeds may well step over that range).

IIRC there were some bugs using close-to-zero layer scales, and to fix them rendering is skipped if the layer scale is extremely close to zero (less than something like 0.0000000000000002). Using such tiny layer scales seems bizarre to me, lots of things will probably be broken if you scale in to that range anyway, as math calculations end up producing zero or infinity results.

The same property is used by the Particles object, and it works there. It's hard to say any more without more information.

Check the release notes to see what we've changed. I don't recall that we've changed anything about handling spritesheets recently though. As ever it's difficult to help unless there's more information to work with.

Construct 3 now uses JavaScript Modules, meaning each file has its own separate scope. If Peer is used as a global variable, you should refer to it with globalThis.Peer.

We did not change anything relating to spritesheets in r240.

I would guess it's something else that changed and you falsely correlated it with the update, which is quite common.
