  Be careful using positional audio though, last time I checked it was still buggy in chromium, not a C3 specific issue.

  Use the "is "yoursong" not playing" condition before the "play this song" condition.

  The events inside the triggered event are still working top to bottom. So if your variable is 0, in that tick it is set to 2, then also within that tick the next condition is true, so the variable is set to 4 and so on.

  Add "wait 0" before the actions in each sub event so that the condition check happens once in the first tick, and then the variable is not updated until the following tick.

  And yes, you don't need the trigger once conditions.

  From memory, even though NW.js supports transparent windows and click through (with conditions) I don't think C3 can do it, pretty sure you just get a black window. Not sure about WebView2 but I assume the same.

  start a timer at the start of the game then whenever you want to spawn an object, compare the timers time and spawn the object based on your comparisons.

  You don't actually even need to save the state of the variable, you can just do a comparison of the stored value at load to determine what the state of the variable should be. Redownload the example and have a look, I've added in Local Storage events.

  Grimmy Try keeping your eyes fixed on the dot in the centre of the screen while you are adjusting the speed slider, and view the white boxes passing by with your peripheral vision. Don't let your eyes wander, do you see the jank then?

  For me, the "jank" only occurs if you shift your focus to another location quickly. This is because your eyes have estimated where each of the objects in your periphery are, then when you shift your vision to their expected location, your eyes have not compensated for the amount of movement of the object during the time it takes you to switch focus (more noticeable at higher speeds). The jank you see is the late compensation for the miscalculation of position by your eyes.

  Yes you would store the status of reward collection, and the date on which it was collected. Then if the date is different to the stored date and the reward status is "collected" you would reset it to available.

  Have a look at this example using system date/time.

  you can use the construct 3 date plugin to compare the time/date. construct.net/en/make-games/manuals/construct-3/plugin-reference/date

  If a reward is claimed store that state in a variable that is saved (using whatever method of saving you are using) and have that variable reset to unclaimed on game load, or during play, if the time is after 00:00 on the next day.

  Of course this only compares system time which can be exploited. If you are happy with your players requiring an internet connection you can get the date/time from a server online.
