If you go into any demo project using set render to image , such as the one called "SetRenderToIMage" and run the project on an android phone through the player and return to the app you get a black screen and it crashes.

steps to reproduce
1. broadcast demo project to agk player
2. press "circle" back button on android phone
3. return to the app to find a blank black frozen screen.

its kind of an annoying issue when im using this to render 2d particles to a 3d image in my game. not a show stopper but still something an end user would complain about.

Why would an end user be broadcasting your game to the AppGameKit Player? Do you get the same problem when running the ap on the device via an APK?

I can confirm the same here. This seems to be an old problem resurrected with Render Images and Android.
I am running AppGameKit Player 2.0.17, although I broadcast from 2.0.16 (not yet upgraded).

they wouldnt be broadcasting but since the final apk is just the player reading bytecode i figured the same result would happen.

Im glad you were able to confirm the issue batvink. it does appear that old issue has resurfaced. it would be good if paul could take a look at it

Thanks, fixed for the next version. This was caused by the SetRenderToImage command not reloading its images correctly.
