  Switch support was discussed recently here.

  PS4 is pretty much in the same situation.

  tl;dr: ask Sony and Nintendo for this.

  Note Xbox One is supported.

  Exported projects cannot be converted back to .capx or opened in Construct.

  Most people actually want this to be as hard as possible anyway to prevent anyone reverse-engineering their games.

  Basically if you've lost the .capx file, the game cannot be edited ever again in Construct. Keep backups!

  It generally is caused by buggy graphics drivers. You may be able to find more information if you press F12 and look in the browser console. Usually the browser will then revert to software rendering - this message only appears if it also failed to revert to software rendering as well, which is a particularly serious (and also rare) problem. Make sure any software updates are installed for the system and browser, and that the graphics driver is up-to-date. You could also try a different browser.

  The project looks like it is working normally. There doesn't seem to be anything obviously wrong with it.

  FYI we can't make even subtle changes to something so important as to how collisions are detected. It would break thousands of projects and result in loads of angry customers. So then we'd be forced to put it back to how it was, and everyone would trust us a little less. Backwards compatibility is hard.

  That would be a C3 bug that would be dealt with the usual way.

  Use the Browser object's On back button trigger.

  I'd rather not add features to work around other missing features. The same work could be done to just fix the original problem. I'll take a look at that suggestion.

  It's not currently supported in the scripting APIs. What do you need it for? What kind of format do you need? It could be HTMLImageElement, ImageBitmap, Canvas, WebGL texture, ImageData...

  This doesn't seem related to this thread, you should start a new thread for new questions. But you can change the document's cursor CSS style, e.g.:

  document.documentElement.style.cursor = "pointer";

  Take a look at the Integrating events with script example that covers this.

  You need to add an array file in the Files section of the Project Bar. You're looking in the Object Types section.

  See File editors in the manual:

  Opening the file editors

  To open a file editor, start by adding a new file in the Files folder of the Project Bar. For more information, see project files.

  It's all the work of Tom!

  The arcade should support MP3, do you have some kind of issue using MP3?

  "Every tick" doesn't have anything to do with the clock time, so I don't think it fits in the "Time" category.

  "Compare two values" and "Is between values" aren't specifically to do with global or local variables, so I don't think it fits in the "Variables" category either.

  The option was removed because there's no need for it, and there was a lot of code associated with it that took up maintenance time.
