Kyatric where do you find out which version of NW you already have installed?

— yikes that's troubling.. I planned on releasing my game next spring.. do you think I should try to roll back to r187?? (also 10.5 allows Fraps to work.)
I don't think I've used any of the new features... seriously.. why do I ever update anything? I always get burned!

I actually had 10.5 of NW but I deleted since the new NW.js no longer has jank issues.

Is the current version of NW.js not working well for you?

Aurel I think released his game on Steam using Node 10.5, he may have advise for you...

well it's not supported.. and potentially it could break something..depending on if you used a new feature that is not in an older version.. but 99% of the time it should be fine..

i.e. if your project uses Local Storage and you change it from version 20300 to version 18700, you will have a problem since Local Storage was not in C2 at that time. I don't know if there's a way to take out the new events, but I wouldn't want to mess with it.

I mostly change the caproj for downloading other people's posted capx... everyone seems in a hurry to update, I'm always way behind..

need more info..

are your sprites top-down view or side-view or isometric?

how are you turning your enemy sprites? rotate? set angle? mirror?

to get the enemies to not all act in concert I do things like add random(x) to the equation. and if they are turning or rotating toward the player, you can turn at different rates so they don't all look like copies doing the same thing..

if you want to revert to an earlier version of C2, open the capx with Winrar and edit the caproj file.

change:

<saved-with-version>20000</saved-with-version>

to

<saved-with-version>19200</saved-with-version>

I wasn't posting because of the search parsing out.. I was more bringing attention to how you can't search on the new name "NW.js" opposed to node-webkit which seems a bit of a problem! (seeing how many questions and problems ppls been having)

The Google workaround seems easy enough, but kind of cludgy... I think the search should at least take quotes into effect and search on the whole string. Not sure how much Ashely or Tom have control over that but just thought I'd bring it up.

I typed "NW.js" in the Forum Search and got this:

The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: nw js.

You must specify at least one word to search for. Each word must consist of at least 3 characters and must not contain more than 14 characters excluding wildcards.
