  You can probably simplify all those creates actions, by adding an instance variable to the thumbnail (with the name of Meme) then on Mouse Click - Create Object By Name and pass in the instance variable of the thumbnail.

  yeah a feature request would be a good idea, but all my votes have already been used on other bigger features, plus these smaller feature request sometimes get overlooked, because everyone wants the shiny cooler things (including myself).

  Yeah ended up with a different solution using properties on the tiled behavior itself and foreach because I had multiple instances. but all is good now.

  Is there a way to check when the tiled behavior completed a movement? I was expecting an on movement finished trigger. I guess I have to use extra variables to keep track of it? Or is there some other way to check when the movement finishes?

  Currently I see setters for all the properties but not for "Ping Pong"/"Loop" setting of a tween, is there currently a way to modify these properties after the tween has been defined?

  Working on the team customization aspect of my American football game. Able to edit the team's primary/secondary color scheme (impacts the endzone color and fan attire), you can customize the team's uniform, and there is a logo editor so people can make their own them. I want to make sure players can export or share their team's, still think of a good way to accomplish this.

  I have been using custom instance events to make code more modular, and reusable. and adding event listeners has worked well, but I have a use case now where I need to stop listening to the custom event dynamically and calling the removeEventListener function on the instance does not remove the event.

  I have tried several ways, the signature of removeEventListener needs the event name and what seems to be the callback function reference.

  does the callback function need to the exact same reference of the function that was added? is there a way to remove the event without passing the same reference? I have attached an example project that demonstrates the events firing, and the listeners reacting to it, but when I try and remove the listener it does not find it in the listenerSet map and never removes it. even though it's there

  One thing you can check is, open the dev tools (f12), there should be an application tab, you should see IndexDB if you expand it, there should be an item called localforage - https://editor.construct.net, if you select it your going to see a list of key-value pairs there should be one called c3-dev-addon-list, make sure your dev addon is not there, you can also remove that property manually (but it will remove all your dev addons)

  May I know how to do this? Can please provide steps?

  here is a super simple example

  drive.google.com/file/d/1st6MuAx0zBiRvPHupojgi4JYiEufREoj/view

  there are 2 layouts one eventsheet, the weapon logic is inside of a group and it is only enabled when you pick it up (in layout 2)

  Hey I have an old project I never finished that has a blackjack implementation.

  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Rcej5rus6KWrt-2kfzsYQet9mivsaaBc/view?usp=sharing

  there should be a blackjack event sheet for the minigame, if you wanted to run the game you need to start it from the menu layout, it was going to be an idle clicker / gambling game which I have abandon (but the blackjack part should work)

  in the editor when you save an animation as a a zip file, do you guys have something on the backlog to generate that import file? it would be super convenient when transferring assets from one project to another to just have to export the zip, and be able to just import it without having to reconfigure all the animations.

  + System: For "" from 1 to Sprite.ImagePointCount -> mover: MoveTo: Move to (Sprite.ImagePointX(LoopIndex), Sprite.ImagePointY(LoopIndex)) (Add waypoint)

  or in scripting you can do something like

  const spr = runtime.objects.Sprite.getFirstPickedInstance();
  const mover = runtime.objects.mover.getFirstPickedInstance();
  
  
  //spr.getImagePointCount()+2 becuase orging point (index0 is in teh middle)
  for(var i=1; i < spr.getImagePointCount()+2; i++) {
  	mover.behaviors.MoveTo.moveToPosition(spr.getImagePointX(i), spr.getImagePointY(i), false);
  }
  

  here is an example:
