  • I don't think you'll get an estimation. They are very busy yet they seem to spend time working on things like themes, which in my opinion could wait until after launch, then giving themselves more work with all the theme bugs, instead of finishing core features like SDK to provide full c2 compatibility, or working on memory issues.

  • I like the idea of Construct 3, but feel like I am a paying beta tester at this point.

    Don't expect any sympathy from them. It's our own fault for subscribing so soon, apparently.

    Personally i'd like to see license begining from the officially launch date, it would be a lot fairer to early adopters and would encourage people to subscribe sooner knowing they get a bit more time with the full version as a thank you for beta testing and helping to improve the software.

  • Events lines wont deselect properly which means multiple lines are highlighted.

    Also preview no longer works, it takes much longer to load and i just see a black screen.

    Latest Chrome for mac.

    Also is there a way to stop the editor updating itself automatically?

  • But my point is i don't have access to all the advertised features because they haven't all been implemented yet.

    There is no ETA on when they will be and i'm having to wait to continue my C2 project in C3.

  • Understandable, but how does this effect my second question?

  • It is a problem designing and marketing a product for non programers and the like yet expecting them to know all about fillrates and things.

  • I subscribed because of the 50% off price (definitely not worth full price imho) and because i'm on mac so it's nice to not have to use a vm. I'm kind of regretting it at the moment since it feels like i'm paying to beta test and the lack of C2 plugins. I'm getting quite fed up with construct and scirra as a whole now, it seems to have sucked all the fun out of making games somehow, so will probably move onto Fusion 3 when it arrives.

    Any idea when the complete SDK will be released? I sort of feel i'm wasting my license right now not being able to import my C2 project. I did not realise the graphics and shader parts were not available.

    Also many people have asked and i'd like an answer also on if the license starts from the purchase date or on the day of official launch?

    Thanks.

  • It would be useful. For me if i log out and then log back in again then everything is reset back to default, don't know if that how its meant to be or a bug, or if it would work for you?

    Also you could add remembering the expression object window size would be great, every time i open C3 its shrunk back to a tiny box, then i have to stretch it out again, which is a pain as the grab/resize handles don't register properly.

  • Try Construct 3

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

  • We're all in the same boat regarding bugs. I don't think it's right for them to pick and choose whos license is extended based on project size.

    Scirra can either take the approach of a) we are early adopters and must accept the bugs or limitations, or b) that we are paying to beta test and the license should not count down until the beta period is over.

  • very useful, I'll keep that mind.

    Thanks AllanR

  • AllanR Thanks and good explination, you were right i was wrongly assuming viewport left was 0.

  • I want to always have a sprites width be the width of the screen regardless of if the user resizes the window.

    I can do set sprite width to viewport(left) + viewport(right), it works but not when unboundscrolling is checked.

    Is this correct or a bug?

  • It was a useful feature to have especially when you have a long expression with lots of brackets and you edit it, but it doesnt seem to working?

  • Never mind themes, please finish the plugin SDK.
