Code?

Sorry, I didn't explain myself: I didn't mean that events can be considered the same thing as classes, but only that I use events file to keep a logical order "as they were" classes... that is, I write all functions related to "hero" in the "hero" event file, all functions regarding "enemy" in "enemy" event file, and so on. :)

oh, gotcha. :) That's typically the way that I do it as well; I usually setup a folder hierarchy in the Event Sheet, so I have an Enemies Folder and then have event sheets for each specific Enemy, OgreSheet, TrollSheet, OrcSheet, HobgoblinSheet, etc. (Depending on how much customization each enemy has from the generic enemy "parent" behavior)

Oh, this is very nice to know from someone with more coding experience. Glad to know someone sees it my way.

I can't code, I'm horrible at it and never liked to (I finished a C# course anyways, code a couple small games), so I'm using Behaviours and Plugins as much as I can, in fact, I try to reduce the Events and Objects as much as possible.

I already optimized my first project a LOT by doing all this, and will apply to all my future projects.

Thanks for your opinion.
