Defold 1.2.78

This release includes support for 64-bit Linux support, both for the editor and engine, a long awaited feature by many!

There is a new option on GUI nodes that will enable automatic resizing according to the texture set for the node. This also works for sprite animation; the node will resize to match the corresponding frame. All new nodes will have this “automatic” behaviour by default, but it can be switched to the old “manual” mode in either the editor or through scripting (gui.set_size_mode(node, size_mode)).

We have added a new field, api_version, to the get_sys_info() table. This correspond to the “API Level” (see What is API Level) on Android and SDK version on iOS. For other platforms this field is not set. We also supply a new HTML5 specific field called user_agent which includes information about the browser (see NavigatorID.userAgent on MDN).

There is also a new option, specific for HTML5 bundles, to set a path prefix and/or suffix from where the data files are loaded. Use this if you are storing the data files on a different server than the HTML/JS files for example.
