Defold 1.2.92

Defold 1.2.92 Stable is now available.

A new component Label is available, for adding text to game objects.

label.set_text

The Facebook API has been updated to more align with the Facebook SDK. The old Facebook API will still function but will not be documented or updated. New API:

facebook.login_with_read_permissions
facebook.login_with_publish_permissions

We have added two more project settings:

graphics.max_draw_calls - Allows you to set the max number of render calls (default 1024)
graphics.max_characters - Allows you to set the max number of text character to pre-allocate (default 8192)

A lot of design tasks for upcoming big features.

Nice! The new label component will be super useful in so many ways!

And the label component and new Facebook functionality has only had a very marginal impact on size, as can be expected:
