@Kris: Actually don't know if you want this here, for it's not actually a release of AGK, it's an add-on, but seemed like a good central place. However, if you think otherwise and intended your post differently, please let me know then I'll make a separate post.

Huge update list - Good to see continued development. Looking forward to testing it out as an excuse to continue my comp entry

Wow Paul has been busy.

[Derron]

He should use some formatting and naming guidelines for his fixes - to better organize a changelog. Mixes IDE and engine stuff - mixes new features and fixes.

So having a quick glance it seems to be mostly fixes ... and some of them look as if they should have been obvious right on testing - which could mean they were introduced by other changes.


Glad for you guys enjoying huge changelogs
Hope some of the bugs you reported are fixed now so to see some more compo entries popping up.


bye
Ron

AGK has an impressive list of updates getting applied:

Fixed expansion file commands causing a crash on Android 9 and above
Fixed SnapChat commands not working on Android
Updated Android export dialog to remove unsupported versions of Android from the drop down list
Fixed SnapChat commands not working in exported iOS apps
Fixed deleting and re-creating lots of objects sometimes causing the new objects to retain the properties of an old object, causing flickering or corruption
Fixed exported iOS apps not being signed correctly
Fixed Android export not working on Mac and Linux

Hmmm, this level of portability is along the lines I was hoping to achieve with Monkey (Then... Monkey X) a few years back.

The portability took too much effort with the numerous Android releases you seemed to have to wrap your head around. I imagine thats still the case - unless you take the decision - sod it, my game will only support the latest and greatest.

Maybe 2020 will be my year for cutting my teeth on a coding engine for the next decade

Thanks for the update news, I've just updated Studio.

Thanks for the update news, I've just updated Studio.

Cool beans, will update when I can frackin get more than 5 minutes to spare. I've never known this time of year to be so busy ( work wise ). I'm definitely gonna have to say to customers "frack off, I'm not working for the next 2 weeks" or else I'll not be able to enjoy Christmas... Sorry for the mini rant - So, AGK Studio has an update \o/

[Rick Nasher]

Yay! They've finally managed to fixe the "Cannot open .AGK from file explorer in Windows" thing! This will make it so much more intuitive to use over AGK2.

@Qube: Yep, busy days here too! Seems like there's a shift in workload / time of year. - BTW: Did they fix your Mac-mouse issue already? (haven't been paying attention for a while)

[Virtual Nomad]

Virtual Buttons/Joysticks vs SetViewOffset didn'y make the official list for 2019.11.27/28 but its apparently been fixed, as well.
