jayderyu I'd love to use spritefonts, but bigger texts using spritefont have terrible performance on Ejecta and CocoonJS unfortunately.

I would immediately buy another copy of Construct 2 if that helps

Sisyphus ,that sounds very promising if it works well on mobile if it's in a browser. There might be a workaround or fix of this lag then

Yeah, it would've solved so much for my project. I can't seem to find how to play audio though on ejecta. Everything else runs like butter

BTW here is the bug report:

Problem Description

Making a 300+ word Spritefont object in C2, (that of course loads once, not every tick or second), makes my ipad mini in CocoonJS die a slow low FPS death. The same happens with my Ejecta export tests.

PC and Mac Browsers seem perfectly fine, and webkit too.

on a 1000+ word spritefont, it literally goes to 2 FPS.

I've tried every combination possible and known to man and women equally. Nothing works. I speculate (probably badly) that C2 on mobile loads ALL the sprites, and not just the ones that are on screen.. or prerenders them as separate objects.

Attach a Capx

Description of Capx

It's just a capx of a big spritefont, make it a big bigger, and you'd see massive FPS drop.

Steps to Reproduce Bug

• Export as CocoonJS or Ejecta
• Play on mobile
• Can't play because FPS is terrible

Observed Result

Low framerate, terrible, horrific one indeed.

Expected Result

Optimised as browsers

Affected Browsers

• Chrome: (NO)
• FireFox: (NO)
• Internet Explorer: (NO)
• CocoonJS Yes
• Ejecta Yes

Operating System and Service Pack

Win7 latest update

Construct 2 Version ID

Newest one

Unfortunately Ejecta is running awful on spritefont too. In a similar if not same fashion.

I can't try Intel XKD since my computer is not strong enough.. uoooh...

The installer says that.

I'm going to report this as a bug I guess

If that's the case, then GREAT Will report with findings.

Colludium , Yup it displays it smaller, and it also has some glitches for text that is higher or wider than 2048 or 3000 px. It just shows black.

But spritefont has it's issues on CocoonJS also. 200+ words in the spritefont cause great lagging See thread here

Sisyphus , What device are you using on CocoonJS? Thanks for the example btw

I'm going to attempt using Ejecta or Intel XKD since they have no Intro Logo like Ludei, and maybe they have their shit fixed with spritefonts, but I'm afraid I might be a bit dumb for the whole procedure. Is it complicated?

I've already published one game on appstore via CocoonJS, and that took a moderate amount of time to handle

Kyatric Nope, definitely not

It's just a single spritefont box with text on it, no code whatsoever. Try it out if you have an ipad. If not, I can provide video evidence and fingerprints of perpetrators (that last part made no sense, still a serious issue though )

Thanks for the help anyway

Ludei have never replied to anything I've written... I don't think they will on such a seemingly marginal problem. Damn it. I was rather hoping that it's a problem on my device only.

Although I bet that spritefont can be maybe tweaked for CocoonJS to delete what is no on screen, so it doesn't drain resources.

Spritefont would've worked so perfectly for me project... damn.

Sisyphus Could you trace your steps so I know what you've tried?

I tried changing almost every function separately, to see if magically it works. That didn't help.

I tried disabling webgl, NO.

I tried lowering text quantity (FPS increased, but just by a little. still 200+ words lag awfully)

It's really just a new project, with a spritefont, and random text added to it, that is 900 px wide, and 3000 px high.. nothing else. If you still want, sure I can make it again and upload it.
