  There are lots of ways to get rep, and some of those ways give 1 rep, like some badges and upvoting comments.

  It doesn't change during runtime, but you cannot count on what it will be until after the object has been created at runtime. Each time you run the game the UID will likely be different.

  Think of it like this - if on preview 1, you create an instance of a sprite, it will have a UID, like 1. If on playthrough 2 you create an instance of sprite2 first, then create a sprite instance, sprite will have a different UID, like 2, than it had on the first playthrough, because sprite2 was assigned the UID 1 first because it was created first.

  Does that make sense?

  The Z sorter plugin will probably help: http://www.scirra.com/forum/plugin-isometric-z-ordering-based-on-y_topic46247.html

  1. C2 is in beta - there's a lot of functionality missing. I expect a debugger to be made at some point.

  2. Some of that functionality that's missing is functions, which in CC you can use to, in the middle of an event, run another event with its own selected object list, with the option of remembering or forgetting the instances of the event the function was run from.

  All you need to do is create a new project, insert a sprite, then, with the sprite only having one animation frame (frame 0), close the animation window and set the initial frame in the properties to 1. Run it, and the runtime will not display.

  Under 'post options' there is an option labelled 'edit post.' Please use that instead of rapidly making tons of posts. Thanks!

  It really isn't that hard to recreate via events - it doesn't add as much complexity at it seems like it would. Besides, if this functionality were to be implemented, I think a new behavior with a more appropriate name should be used - a 'follow' behavior, for example. Pin should do what it says. It wouldn't be easily apparent that pin could also follow.

  The example has been updated - there was a bug involving the pathfinding not working if the playerbase and pathfinder weren't on a node at the start of layout. The few version fixes that.

  Are you sure? Because earlier versions of C2 (67 and earlier) work in IE9 properly. I thought it might've had something to do with webGL, since IE stopped working properly when that was introduced.
