Platform Builder 5.0.1
« on: May 02, 2018, 07:12:34 AM »
Hey guys,


The first patch for Platform Builder 5.0 is ready.


Some of the problems were my mistake, but many of them happened through the compiler that I used. In other words, the process which "put it all together" was acting strangely. I never noticed those issues because I run tests with a different system.


5.0.1 is compiled with my "tester" instead of the compiler that I normally use. This seems to have resolved some of the issues, especially the really weird ones. The downside is that Platform Builder might be a bit slower or laggy with large projects... at least... that's what they tell me. I'd be curious to know if the update gives a noticeable "hit" on your performance. Whatever the case, I'll sit down and tinker around with the "better" compiler when I find some time. For now, 5.0.1 should be much more functional for you.


Yours,
TingThing
