@chair The terminal will only show up in debug builds of your game. if you build for release or final the game will silently fail

if you're not familiar with lix, and just want a simple installer for 4.1.5 you can get it here: https://haxe.org/download/version/4.1.5/

Notice the top left and right of the page lets you select older/newer versions, respectively.

You can download 4.1.5 here, I recommend using that version

Congrats on the promotion, Richard!

boy will I look like a fool if you end up being a robot...

@jgedri said in Int must be Bool:

To that end, I wrote a function to check the value of currentRoom, which can apparently only be a boolean if I want to use it with FlxOgmo3Loader

What exactly do you mean by this? is this a property you are trying to add in the editor for a level or a restriction when using the code FlxOgmo3Loader? I'll need more info to help

Things are getting pretty out of hand, quickly. I see one of them (marysmith) was banned this past month, so I assume there are mods/admins here that are active. I don't know who the mods are but I want to start a discussion about the future of this forum.

I recommend Richard Bray be upgraded to Mod status, since he's pretty active here and seems to not be a robot. Also, we may want to consider some bot protection, perhaps a captcha at signup (recommended by lorb)

TBH I forget this forum exists, and will hopefully start checking more frequently, but perhaps we should have a bot that posts new threads in the Haxe Discord's #flixel channel? This forum is likely a front-line way of helping haxeflixel newcomers, and it seems neglected. Fixing it up could improve onboarding to our fabulous, welcoming community

this is apparently a newly discovered lime issue, with a fix underway. Will post info when I get it

Apparently if I set the framerate to 60, it runs at 60 on html, for some reason. I consider this a solution, but it raises more questions...

I'm getting shitty framerates in a pretty simple game, I'm porting my old flash Flappy Bird clone to Haxe just to test some tools. IE: 320x512px (at 2x scale) game with a scrolling tilemap and 1 flx sprite

Flash stats:

Html5 stats:

What confuses me, is that html5 appears to have a significantly faster update and draw time, yet the FPS is never above 25. I tried -Dwebgl, any other advice?

Using latest chrome
flixel: 4.3.0 [git]
lime: 2.9.1 [6.4.0] git
openfl: 3.6.1 [8.3.0] git

Oh yeah, I had default on, it breaks when i change to something else. Chrome too
