News: Construct 2 Release r259.

The development team come with this new release for Construct 2 game engine.
This is a stable update to incorporate fixes from r256, r257 and r258. As noted previously, we are only maintaining Construct 2 with bug fixes at this point. New features will only be added to Construct 3.

Since r255 the main improvements are:

  • Better handling of video and audio autoplay. This includes updates to work around Chrome 66's changes to autoplay policy which can prevent audio playback in old content. If you find your old games are muted in Chrome, export them again with this update and they should play audio correctly once the user has interacted with the page (i.e. a click, touch or key press). 
  • Support for Xbox Live Achievements. This should allow games on the ID@Xbox programme to meet the publishing requirements. In addition to that there are also a range of bug fixes, notably for a crash using savegames with Physics, and ensuring long-press on Android no longer triggers vibration.
