New this build: support for Amazon Appstore packaged apps. Previously to publish to the Amazon Appstore you had to have a web-hosted project and provide the URL to the Amazon Appstore. However now the Amazon Appstore accepts packaged apps where they host the files for you, saving you from having to find a host. Simply zip the resulting files and upload them in the 'App files' section of the Amazon developer dashboard (after choosing the 'ZIP' option).

There are a few other fixes in this build, and an optimisation for destroying lots of objects. We're due a stable update soon so please test carefully and report any issues you find to the Bugs forum following all the guidelines. If all is well then r190 will be the next stable release.

Changelog

Add

Amazon Appstore exporter: now provides option to export packaged apps. Simply zip the resulting folder and you can submit an app hosted by the Amazon Appstore instead of your own server.
Add

WebGL shader effects can now use a 'scrollPos' vec2, which is the scroll position (in the middle of the screen) in layout co-ordinates.
Change

Sine behavior: reverted r188's fix to update the initial state when setting active, since it broke existing games. Instead there is a new 'Update initial state' action to do this explicitly.
Bug Fix

The editor can now import 32-bit GIF files, but we still strongly recommend using PNG instead.
Bug Fix

Form controls now respond better to changed browser zoom levels on desktop.
Performance

Destroying large numbers of instances in one go is now considerably faster. This could be a significant help if destroying entire sections of a layout at a time.
