I can't find the Function Object anymore. It doesn't show the object when trying to call it or create one. I can't add it to the project, because the icon is not there!

I've no idea what happened, I'm using C3 R188, but the current stable release isn't displaying it either. Neither of the normal or built-in functions are showing. It doesn't matter if I try incognito or the free version or with a new project.

Probably I'm doing something wrong, or did something get messed up with my browser?

Thanks.

Functions no longer show as an object - you can add a function by right-clicking on an empty space of the event sheet and selecting "Add function".

The feature was redesigned about a year ago, so you're a little late to the party. See the blog post Construct 3's new redesigned functions.

Thanks :) I was already wondering what happened to it.

Ashley - I may very well have missed that post, as I wasn't using C3 back then, still on C2.

I just noticed - in one C3 project of mine I noticed I can still use the actions and events to create functions. Why is that? This is what I was initially confused about. The objects are visibly added, both built-in and normal.

C2 used a Function plugin, and this was carried over to the C2 runtime in C3. The C3 runtime deprecated that plugin and made it a built-in feature instead. The blog post I linked to covers the history of it.
