alemar I updated the first post, it's related to the mouse plugin somehow, if your project does't need a mouse plugin, just remove it and keyboard will work fine. anyhow, hoping for a fix, as lots of games use mouse AND keyboard :)

turn off the minifyer.

also here's the list of all known bugs in 79.2:

http://www.scirra.com/forum/r792-bugs_topic49185.html

alemar did you reproduce it? wow I thought I was the only lucky one :) how did you do it? I can't seem to reproduce it from an empty project, occurs only in my old ones.

some of your layers have parallax setting. try to play with it, I bet there's your problem :)

I thought it would be good idea to list all recent release bugs in one thread, so people can check it instead of duplicating them. feel free to participate. so here goes. if someone thinks it's better off to keep each bug in its own thread, feel free to remove this one.

1) keyboard object events (ie. key is down) still don't work after 79.2 update, this is related to some other objects / behaviors as putting simple keyboard and moving sprite doesn't seem to reproduce it. controls don't work after export to Kongregate, Scirra Arcade, Facebook. in the lan preview they work fine, so it may be something with exported HTML. Also when exporting to html5 web site - controls DO work. this is NOT related to minifyer bug below. EDIT: seems that the mouse object is causing problems: http://www.mediafire.com/?o66w073x1m6k2c9 if you export this to kongregate/arcade/facebook it won't work (A and D to move the black box left and right respectively), but if you just remove the mouse object, it works fine. the mouse object doesn't have ANY events attached to it.

This has been corrected by Ashley's fix: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/15217362/mouse-iframefix.zip - unfortunately not on scirra arcade, but on kongregate and facebook, games should work fine now!

2) minifyer doesn't work, it throws an error:

Error: this.xa.hq is not extensible

Source: c2runtime.js

Line: 31

this also causes sprites and some other objects not to appear in the export.

3) Families bug still here:

cacotigon's capx: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/62273967/famvarbug.capx

open and try to drag an instance of sprite onto layout

Pasted text:

---------------------------

Construct 2 Check failure

Check failure! This is probably a bug:

No instance value for instance variable

Condition: i != instance_values.end()

File: Projects\InstanceVariable.cpp

Line: 176

Function: class std::basic_string<wchar_t,struct std::char_traits<wchar_t>,class std::allocator<wchar_t> > __thiscall InstanceVariable::GetInstanceValueStr(class ObjectInstance *) const

Build: release 79.2 (32-bit) checked

Component: Construct 2 IDE

(Last Win32 error: 0)

try to set unbounded scrolling to on in the layout properties.

confirmed means that this bug occurs not only at your system, but also the person that says "confirmed" has this problem.

this is a bug that is here since R79, minifyer is buggy, it's not the first time it has problems, just turn it off for now and you're fine, until it's fixed.

edit: i think signatures don't work as intended...

also, the edit box that appears in the end, I cant get it to focus, so I cannot write anything there. maybe this is also connected, the textbox is created (system->create object) at the end. also I noticed that when I focus off the tab with the game, the game pauses, maybe that's also connected :)

Ashley , Tom I just uploaded a simple testing game with just the keyboard and text plugins, and the keyboard controls worked, then I reuploaded my old game, and the keyboard doesn't work again. I don't think it's a game logic problem, as in preview and when exporting to html5 web site, the controls work as intended, only in the arcade they don't. also I think it's r79 related, because this happend right after I updated and uploaded the game from r79, earlier version from r78 worked fine. Hope that helps and I really would like to see this fixed, as the game in question is in rotary competition and already started to get low scores because of this :( cheers!

But this may be more have to do with browser shortcut keys. The trick should work.

but the problem is with "D", "A" and "ESCAPE" keys, not the arrows, arrows should only help to find where the problem is, as in earlier releases these keys were working, and arrows were NOT scrolling the page :)

I confirm [...]

yes! at least we agreed on something ;)

also, please look into the arcade problem, i wrote somewhere that it may not be connected with the export itself, cos it seems like the canvas doesn't get keyboard focus, as pressing up and down arrows just scrolls the page up and down.

ranma, I'm confused, what about the "Error: this.xa.hq is not extensible"? Where does that occur?

sugames.eu/rotadefense/html

in firefox script error console (don't know how's that in english version, as I'm using non-english firefox, but something like that probably)

does any of you see something more than two white texts and blue construct link? maybe clear cache? :)
