  • yea if it is a performance regression with a new version definitely report it as a bug!

  • https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JMx4M9_82Eirxq5rIfF-H2cQCyZ4Urmi/view?usp=sharing

    I created this setup and let it run for a few minutes, for me performance stays consistent and doesn't get worse over time.

  • Really hard to tell from the little information.

    Having lots of objects, especially if they run complex logic, for example collision checks, for each loops etc will be very costly to performance if not optimized thoroughly.

    Are you sure the performance problem is not based on the sheer amount of bullets and events?

    As you say the problem is recent, does the project run better in a old version of c3?

    Secondly could you send a simple project file that has the problem so I can investigate?

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

  • There have been a few games made with a fully 3d world with Mikals plug-in https://kindeyegames.itch.io/c3-3dobject-alpha

    But for full on 3d games real 3d engines are prefered, as all logic is basically still 2d in Construct.

  • to count tiles:

    little example of a vacuum mechanic, probably not really what you are trying to do though:

  • 72677 for just a small area sounds like an amount that will very likely lead to performance problems, I would suggest changing the game design to allow for larger dust particles.

    It was a suggestion on the suggestion board and it is in line with some UK guidelines/laws for software that is used by minors iirc.

  • There have been tons of discussion of this topic on the community Discord and people are trying to solve it. Skymen touches on this a bit in this blogpost.

    Scroll down a bit to see that part about Pixel Art.

  • As you can create objects by name, same for deactivating folders etc. there is no way Construct can know what is used and what isn't.

    Little example to make it clear: imagine there is a text input and depending on what the player types the object with the matching name is created.

  • I have observed the text alignment to be inconsistent across platforms as well.

    But I sadly don't really now why or how to fix it. (I also don't have different devices to test)

    I just try to make sure the textbox is a good bit larger then the text and is in a place where slight misalignment isnt't that obvious.

  • Construct animate has exports that don't have a fixed framerat. So having it limited to a specific framerate is not realistic or desirable in certain cases.

    Secondly, watching a 24fps video on a common monitor (which is 60hz normally) will not result in even timing, certain frames would need to be shown longer than others.

    So imo framerate doesn't make sense for an overall project setting.

    Though I would love them to add a framerate limiter option. For Construct 3 as well, would be great for testing as well, I have a 144hz screen and can't test 60 fps easily.

  • I think it's confusing because it makes it seem like you are setting the fps for the project, which you are not by all means! You are only setting what the timeline markers and stepping references, secondly what if you want to have one animation at 12 fps the other at 24 in one project?

    The bar in Spine allows more incremental changes, it just snaps to the common resolution if you get close to them, like 24.08 it would snap to 24. In Construct it could just be a value field in the timeline Properties.

    I agree the speed thing is kinda redundant.

    And the Stepped, Interpolated is not easing. We already have a similar dropdown in Construct Timeline though (called Animation mode).

    Imo if you rename duration you would need to rename it to hold for duration or freeze for duration. As otherwise it would not imply correctly what you are supposed to set there.

    But I don't want to argue, I think it's completely fine to have different opinions on how to solve certain things, I just want to give my pov on this. So I hope you don't see this as an attack. :)
