Screenshot extension
This extension lets you save a screenshot of the running game as a PNG file.
Warning
Screenshots are only supported when running on Windows, Linux, or macOS (desktop builds). They will not work in web builds or on mobile.
Take a screenshot
Use the Take screenshot action to save everything currently drawn on the game window to a PNG file.
The action takes a single parameter: the save path where the screenshot will be written.
- The path must be an absolute path on the file system (for example,
"C:\MyFolder\MyScreenshot.png"on Windows). - Relative paths are not supported.
- If the path does not end in
.png, the extension is added automatically.
Tip
Use expressions from the Filesystem extension to build paths that work across platforms. These give you the path to common system folders like Pictures, Documents, or Desktop.
Example
FileSystem::PicturesPath() + FileSystem::PathDelimiter() + "my_screenshot.png"
This saves the screenshot to the Pictures folder on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
Reference
All actions, conditions and expressions are listed in the screenshot extension reference page.
