  Use a rgb(r,g,b) expression to address the parameter then.

  My take on this would be to store the image information in a tilemap (1x1, 2x2 etc. pixels depending on desired resolution), then go through the whole thing and do bitwise operations on each tile and determine what to put there (e.g, if a "white" tile has "white" neighbor tiles to east, west, south and north direction, this must be an intersection).

  You have to deal with roads that are not complete 90 degrees angles over longer distances though. Several interpolation algorithms can be applied here.

  Tween (value), set up your tween parameters.

  Then, every tick -> set object variable to object.tween.value

  Test1 works on my side (Chrome, R155).

  However, I got some questions for you.

  E.g. what is the reason behind having these completely redundant objects and events?

  

  

  Luckily, this is not Multimedia Fusion so there is no need here ;)

  Also, instead of doing this:

  

  You can do this:

  

  and put this event in the basic event sheet. Then you can use the basic event sheet for every level.

  You have to create a "Game completed" layout though ;) (Or skip that)

  You can adjust several parameters on the audio object, including the roll-off factor (factor at which the volume gets lower over distance), etc. I suggest you play with these values until you find a setup that suits your needs.

  

  For reference, I recommend to read the manual entry on Audio, especially the audio properties:

  You're welcome.

  Unfortunately you can't have "on speech ended" inside a function as it is a triggered condition.

  Functions are in some way also a triggered condition, namely when the function is called.

  Since the code runs sequentially, one can't have two conditional triggers at the same time.

  Per se you can only have one condition trigger (green arrow indication) in a condition block and its sub events.

  To utilize "on speech ended" then, your approach has to be changed in a certain way.

  Check this tutorial:

  It's Construct 2 but you can follow along perfectly in C3.

  For the paddle AI, if you use fake inputs, you have to factor in the x and y speeds of the ball in order to make the AI player react accordingly. This involves some math at some point.

  You can also just fake player reaction by just using the balls y position and then move the AI paddle with sometimes accurate, sometimes inaccurate y speed.

  My initial reasoning was wrong. In a weak moment, I got tricked by the speechsynthesis plugin as it seems to queue texts to synthesize on it's own.

  Edit: On a side note, if you want steady pauses between each sentence, you have to factor in the length of the text / duration to speak.

  There is a condition on SpeechSynthesis "on speech ended" that you could utilize and wait from there.

  As stated earlier, place "wait for previous action to complete" below "wait int(tokenat(room.short_desc,loopindex*2,";")) seconds"

  Works fine for me.

  Put the c3p on a cloud storage like google drive, dropbox etc, then share the hyperlink in the forum post.
