Here are some screenshots of the current game so far:

Hello everyone! I'm currently looking for an artist and a music composer for a game I am currently making for the Newgrounds Construct2 GameJam, as well as releasing it to Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 (Android is also being considered).

It is going to be a missile command style action game, where you defend groups of people from sabotaged fireworks set to target them.

Most of the game is already finished, so all I need is some talented artwork to give it a professional look. Since this will be primarily for a competition, and therefore more of a hobbyist project, it won't be paid work, however, if the game is good enough to be in the top eight, both supporting members will be given $25 Store Credit (I assume for the Newgrounds site)!

If you are interested, message me or put something in the comments. :)

Sorry about that, I've just checked and Google appears to have fixed the bug now.

OK will do. Thanks. :)

Link to .capx file (required!):

dl.dropbox.com/u/30381754/Touch%20Test%20Application.capx

Steps to reproduce:

1. Run the Layout or Export the project as a HTML5 website.

2. Release from Touch, and the red square

Observed result:

<img src="https://dl.dropbox.com/u/30381754/Touch%20Issue%20screenshot.png" border="0" />

This screenshot was after multiple touches of my screen, the screen wasn't in any contact while the screenshot was captured.

Expected result:

A red square should appear at the position of the first touch, and follow the location of the touch until the touch ends, where the red square disappears.

The first touch count returns the value of the TouchCount expression, the second one is a global variable which increments when a new touch is received and de-increments when a touch has ended. Both touch counts should be the same value, increasing by one when a touch is performed and have a value of zero when the screen is not touching.

Browsers affected:

Chrome: yes

Internet Explorer: no

Operating system & service pack: Windows 8 Pro (64-bit)

Construct 2 version: r123.2

I first raised this bug on the version [r122], but the bug still occurs. As of writing it only seems to be effected on Google Chrome, as Internet Explorer, as well as exported versions for CocoonJS and Windows 8 are not effected.

Why is this now in the closed section?

Can you make a simpler .capx? As it is the events are complicated enough that it's not obvious this is not just a mistake in your events.

Edit: also, your .capx does not match your screenshot, I don't see a touch count text showing.

Sorry about that, I updated that old .capx file. I've made a simple .capx like you requested. All it does is draw text that details the amount of touches using "TouchCount". I've also changed the screenshot to demonstrate this new one. <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

I've done a bit more testing and found that the bug does not occur while running it on Android using CocoonJS, or when exported as a Windows 8 App. Therefore this bug of mine occurs as a HTML5 Application both exported and running from the capx file.

Link to .capx file (required!):

Steps to reproduce:

1. Run project in Google Chrome App on laptop with touch screen (mine is an Asus SonicMaster N6 series)

2. Touch the screen, usually with quick taps.

Observed result:

Touch count increases by one for each touch, but some do not decrease.

When the screen is single touched, a black circle appears in at the position of the initial touch, but sometimes doesn't disappear after the touch has ended.

This can lead to touch count values like these:

<img src="https://dl.dropbox.com/u/30381754/Touch%20Issue%20screenshot%20%28800x524%29.jpg" border="0" />

These issues appear more likely to occur with quick taps of the screen, as long held touches do not appear to have effect.

Expected result:

Touch count increases by one at start of touch, and decreases by one the end of a touch.

When the screen is single touched, a black circle appears in at the position of the initial touch, and disappears when the touch has ended.

Browsers affected:

Chrome: yes

Firefox: no

Internet Explorer: no

Operating system & service pack: Windows 8 64-bit Pro

Construct 2 version: r122

I'm not sure whether to refer it as a bug in Construct2, my project or an issue with my laptop's touchscreen. But while working on a project, I noticed the position of the touch actions are different to where I'm touching on the screen.

I don't get any issues when using a mouse, only when I'm using the touchscreen on my laptop. What I found after adding text that displays the amount of touches currently on screen, and randomly touching the screen: this ended up occurring:

<img src="https://dl.dropbox.com/u/30381754/Touch%20Issue%20screenshot.png" border="0" />

For some reason, some of the touches don't get removed after the loss of contact from the screen, so in this case I somehow ended up with 21 touches, even after having my hand away from contact with the screen. The mouse does not cause this effect. Any help will be appreciated.

What programming language are you using? I assume JavaScript and HTML5 but I have experience in a few languages myself.

Wow, both methods work! I didn't notice there was a variable that contains the UID for the pinned object! Thank you both very much!! :D
