Hi!
I have a problem with Ace.
I'm programming a system that makes pictures hide outside the screen and you have to move the game window to see them.
I succeeded, it works, unfortunately the game window freeze when I move it and the location of the pictures updates when I release the window. I thought maybe it was a Win8 problem. Then I checked around and apparently someone managed to fix this problem on Game Maker, the window continues to update itself when you move it:

I would like to know if there is a solution for Ace?

The issue described is by no means related to events. You have to prevent the window that runs the engine from pausing. If you take a look at the various scripts listed here, you will find one that does something similar. Depending on how it is written, it might do the trick for you. Unfortunately, I don't remember who is the author, but I remember reading something like that.

Anyway, I think you need a DLL that interacts with the window. As far as I know, there is no way to interact with it without relying on Win32API. I am afraid that a simple ruby script is not going to work in this situation.

Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
