Yeah, for now you can use the Mouse & Keyboard object and create your own movements.

There haven't been any important stable plugin updates between builds since the auto updater was implemented. Any updated plugins on the CVS are not guaranteed to be stable or work at all - in the past when I've linked you to the CVS to get an updated plugin, it was simply a quick measure to patch something important, or just for general availability. So I'd advise against updating your plugins off CVS between builds, unless I've explicitly said it would work (there's no guarantee for example a 0.91 .csx file is compatible with a 0.90 build Construct).

I'm not sure this is possible yet, the controls system only supports one set of inputs! Multiplayer support is on the todo list though...

Everyone on the team is writing Construct in our spare time around full-time university courses. My course is sometimes quite demanding too so we simply cannot publish estimated timescales for releases. When they're done, they're done!

BTW in regards to the original problem I think you should use 'Is overlapping' instead of 'On collision':

+ On step

+ Is overlapping Object

: Destroy bullet etc.

Yes - it will disable all effects that aren't supported though, so your game could look different, and in some circumstances, may make it unplayable. You can use 'Simulate shader' to test it with shaders disabled.

The error message ought to explain what to do!

Construct supplies all the Python libraries and attaches them to any exported EXEs - including socket and StringIO - and it must be finding StringIO, because it is required for Python to work at all with Construct... hmm, I'll think about it!

You could try ipconfig /renew from the command line instead. I don't know enough about Python sockets to help you though...

A lot of onboard graphics chips don't support any pixel shader because they don't need to (think office PCs) - so it is always a good idea to set up your game to have fallbacks and run with no shaders at all - either that, or make it clear you need the shaders.

Sure you can probably get a PS 2.0 card for $30, but it won't be fast

http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/c ... _Scripting

Introduction to some of the features of Python scripting, how to use objects, and a bit on how events and scripts can communicate. Hope this helps, more tutorials on the way!

Seems to import OK here - are you sure there's not a typo or something? What you pasted imports 'socket', but the error message said it was looking for '_socket' with an underscore.
