  • This looks like a legit crash.

    Saving the state of timelines is a fairly new feature, was just added in r174.

    There is no built in way to modify layout values with neither tweens nor timelines.

    You'll have to take the longer route for that, a value tween should do the trick for you. Set it up, and as the tween plays, assign it's value to the layout property you are interested in.

    I just fixed this issue. Tried it out with your project and everything seems to be working just fine.

    A patch should be coming out soon for the latest stable release to fix this and a few other issues.

  • Thanks for reporting the issue, turns out it was a very old bug I was never able to figure out.

    In the future if you find any more problems please report them in our bug tracker github.com/Scirra/Construct-3-bugs/issues

    It's a little bit more work, but it is more likely we can see it and do something about it. This time it worked fine to post the problem in the forum, but more often than not these forum reports get lost and forgotten.

    Just saw the bug report in the tracker, the bug was already fixed, but the fix hasn't reached a stable version yet. You can try it out in the latest beta version though.

  • Got it.

  • You can send it to my email, it's diego@scirra.com, I'll take a look at it. From the screen shot you posted it seems like it is a problem with the Tween Behavior.

    Please file a bug report at https://github.com/Scirra/Construct-3-bugs/issues.

    If you can, post the project that causes the error. If you can't post the project itself, a minimal project that reproduces the issue will be of great help to quickly sort the problem out.

  • I found what the problem was, some old code that I don't quite remember what it was supposed to do was the culprit. I am sure it was a good idea at the time of writing it :P

    It was affecting the modes of the Animations Editor which don't use the Frames panel, like object types with no animation, individual images in the Files folder and individual tile editing.

    The fix should be out in the next beta release.

  • Looking at this now, it looks like it is only happening in the simplified modes of the editor.

  • Of the top of my head.

    1) It is developed by a pretty beefy studio, look up YoYo Games.

    2) It's older and was well established before being bought by YoYo Games and even before Construct 2 gain notoriety.

    3) Some very popular games have been made with it.

    and my personal favorite, a perk of being older...

    It has the better name!

    Seriously, if you know nothing about making games and want some sort of piece of software that will help you achieve that goal, what would you search for?... probably some sort of game making program some might even type for game maker straight away. It is the best name.

    Recently we spotted a subtle problem with the Animations Editor, if you click on any of the color swatches with their default value of transparent black, that color will be set to be used to draw.

    If you try to pick a different color from the main color picker, C3 preserves the alpha value, but because it is now 0, the new color remains fully transparent. Further more, C3 also preserves the luminance of the old color when you pick a new one, in this case the luminance is 0% because the old color is black. This all means that after the color is set to transparent black it makes it seem as if you can't change colors!

    This has been fixed for the next beta release, and shouldn't be too long before it lands in the next stable release.

    In the mean time, make sure the alpha value is different to 0. You can set it to 255 for a fully opaque color.

    Also make sure to check the position of the luminance slider (right below the main color picker), if it is all the way to the left, the color will always be black, if it is all the way to the right the color will always be white. The middle will give you the same color as the one picked in the color picker.

    You can also change the luminance of a color by changing to HSL color space (the very bottom of the color palette). The you can change the luminance value of the color manually, it ranges from 0% to 100%.

    Hope that helps.
