  • Post a video, or gif, not a flash game.

    Also, making multiple posts is not going to help.

    It might get you banned.

  • Just change the dist value to random 10.

    Its not going to look like you think though.

    That just gives you a shake, unless you're up scaling from one pixel.

  • I'm actually considering devolving back to Windows 7.

    Really the main reason for having Windows 10 was Udp, and its been a joke.

    Working faster after reboot would suggest that its something to do with reading from memory. The nature of the bug, or the fix, kind of goes along with that.

    Also I believe the 30% hit number was given as a system wide expectation.

  • A loop means to run everything in the code until it is complete. The cycle, or tick cannot finish until the loop is done.

    Using While as is makes it so that it may never complete, so the system crashes.

    Don't use While unless you know for sure what you are doing.

    If you want it to run every second then use the Every x milliseconds condition under system as a sub event of the Los condition.

  • W10 does seem pretty guilty, as do the Spectre/ Meltdown updates.

    My question is wtf is it affecting my AMD system.

  • Tested again.

    The editor became completely unresponsive, and had to exit via the task manager.

    I would point out that running Chrome in compatibility mode still fixes my issues there.

  • Just ran C2 in compatibility mode for Windows 7, my original os.

    The editor worked perfectly.

    Not only that, but it fixed a Chrome issue I was having.

  • You're probably right MPPlantOfficial

    I'm pretty sure my hardware is still working properly. I know for sure that Microsoft's forced updates are the cause of most of my woes as there's a list of other issues they cause, and have no intent on fixing.

  • Thanks.

    I have a feeling its hardware.

  • You're pretty new and as such have low credibility.

    Perhaps the spam filters kicked in and removed the post from public view.

    Posting a URL with low reputation automatically causes a few filters anyway.

    I would suggest that rather than upload a game to a file site that causes all sorts of alarm, you should put it on a reputable site as a html5 game to run directly in the browser.

    Edit:

    Just checked r250, the bug happens there as well.

  • I'm getting a lot of crashes(not responding) with C2 252 when going back and forth to the browser after adjusting layout sizes.

    Anyone else having something similar?

    Also, possibly unrelated, I had to switch to Firefox as the latest Chrome (r64) had other issues, syncing, videos, as well as half the frame rates other releases had.

    The low frame rate seems to extend to Nwjs as well.

    I'm also experiencing the reported hangs on menu dialogs. These did not exist until the last two C2 releases, at least not in smaller projects.

    Edit:

    Nailed down how to cause the bug

    Still not sure wtf is up with Chrome.

    I'm expecting its all hardware...
