This should not be marked as Solved. The web server still doesn't show on version 1.4.1804. To test on Android, USB needs to be always connected and the runner is installed every time.

I'm using a workaround by starting the server manually and it seems to work.
  • 'Run the game' once with the phone connected to USB this will install the runner.
  • Create a shortcut somewhere to:
%appdata%\GameMaker-Studio\GMWebServer.exe --root C:\Users\YOUR_NAME\AppData\Local\gm_ttt_SOME_NUMBER\YOUR_GAME
  • The root folder is different for you, check your log for 'Saving IFF file...', use that folder.
  • You can then start the web server using the shortcut.
  • Disconnect the USB, 'Run the game', it will fail with 'error: no devices/emulators found' but it will update the web server files and reloading the runner works (if you set the correct IP).
