    hmm- i am using if touch is pressed and still have issues with two versions of my game... in one version my enemies simply don't appear... i can move my player but the enemies don't get triggered... in the newer version all enemies are doing to steps instead of one step when they are walking.... hmm

    I'm having loads of problems since upgrade..preview won't work...clicking on an actor does nothing so i can't access any code :(

    I keep restarting GS but it goes the same after a while.

    I guess I am lucky, no problems here. Have you removed touch-inside from everything??
  • UtopianGamesUtopianGames Member Posts: 5,692
    I should be ok as i have only touch inside and not touch is pressed too.

    Strange thing...i had an actor that spawned when level is completed or a fail actor if not...now when i complete level i get a fail lol...ahh well i will keep plugging unless i can get the previous version.

    hmm soo skeptical at the moment, obviously i really wanna upgrade but so many horror stories without any definitive work arounds/fixes.

    When i preview it changes my screen size to very wide and doesnt go back to the size i had it before i previewed...lots of bugs in this.

    yeh think i'll hold fire for a while then and see what occurs over the next few days. Trying to work on a big project now, the last thing i want is to have to redo it all coz the update screws it all up. thanks for the info

    instant problem for me. on my game main screen i have actor images for text like "New Game", "Settings","Help" etc. When I mouse click on "New Game" the option for Settings is selected so looks like mouse calculations on click are not correct.

    As this is the first problem on the most basic screen, I will not continue.

    Thanks God I keep backups. Going back to V7.

    So curiosity killed the cat and all that, i decided to back up my most recent project im working on and took the plunge and upgraded. I dont seem to be having any of the problems people are mentioning, i loaded up my old apps and they all behaved how they should. On my newest game i havent seen much of a performance increase but looking at one of the older ones i def noticed a big improvement, alot smoother and sharper. Love the new features and cant wait to actually use them now. Keep up the awesome work GS :)

    Polexia is royally jacked up! :( It won't even load. Can't get past the logo screen. When I hacked it to remove the logo screen the actual game field won't even render. :( :( :(

    Please help! I don't know what to do! :(

    And now beta 0.8.0 messed it up!
