Oh yeah, heh, I gave it a simpler name. No rotation enables the up vector.

Hehe, nice <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /> if you use an up vector on the tank (enable it in physics properties), you wont be able to tip the tank over.

Is there a hung temp.exe process? Alternatively try finding Temp.exe in the Scirra folder in Application Data, and deleting it.

CommonDialog.SelectedFile(1) works for me here, try putting it in a text object. Is this a bug in the image object then?

In the animator bar, angle 0 means facing right, and angle 180 means facing left. So if you add two animation angles, then under each, draw a frame with the character facing in the appropriate direction. When you move the character it'll automatically pick the nearest animation frame for that direction.

Temp.exe might have hung and locked up the process with an invisible window. Check if there's a temp.exe in task manager and end it if there is, because it would prevent write access to temp.exe the next time you press preview, and actually launch the old unmodified temp.exe a second time.

Sure thing. I've bookmarked it and I'll stop by from time to time.

Should be fixed in 0.9, coming next day or two.

I'll have to check the Physics movement: it does have a finite world size, and I believe I originally set the dimensions somewhere in the region of several thousand pixels in all directions from 0,0, but I guess this isn't enough. Changing the world X/Y scale values might increase the maximum world area. I'll investigate this soon.

What if I create new istances? How do I make them in a container if they're two new istances?

This is done automatically; if you create any of the individual objects in a container, the whole container is created.

i.e. if you have SpriteA and SpriteB in a container, and an event creates SpriteA, a SpriteB is also created and is in SpriteA's container. This probably needs a wiki article <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" title="Razz" />
