Screenshot extension

This extension lets you save a screenshot of the running game as a PNG file.

Note

Screenshots are only supported on Windows, Linux, and macOS. Web and mobile exports do not support this feature.

Take a screenshot

Use the Take screenshot action to save everything currently drawn on the game window into a PNG file. The action requires an absolute file path as the save destination.

Use the File System expressions to build cross-platform paths automatically, rather than hard-coding platform-specific paths.

Example

To save a screenshot to the user's Pictures folder:

FileSystem::PicturesPath() + FileSystem::PathDelimiter() + "my_screenshot.png"

This works on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Reference

All actions, conditions and expressions are listed in the screenshot extension reference page.
