  • That's great, good for you. Though, I wouldn't expect too much because as you try to find more features, the harder it is to proceed, due to some limitations.

    But, overall it's still a great game engine.

  • You can use Function Maps or Scripting. Function Maps would take more events than the old way though. And you can't do anything if your next passed function-method has a different arrangement or number of parameters. That's because the new built-in Functions doesn't fully support dynamic methods.

    But Scripting does help you achieve it easier through: callFunction(name, ...params).

    Reference: construct.net/en/make-games/manuals/construct-3/scripting/scripting-reference/iruntime

    Going back to dynamic methods. When the new Functions (built-in) released, it introduced new redundancies and limitations. You can check out the thread here:

  • They did add that feature, it's called CSS.

    It's a form-control not a Sprite, you can edit it as you please.

  • Thanks, will do.

    That example doesn't seem to make sense. Why would you pass RGBA parameters as CMYK? That's passing them as a different format.

    I just wanted to point out, how parameters can change when they receive it. The first function receives an RGBA, the second one receives a CMYK passed on to it, also HEX where it added more parameters.

    I just wanted to point out how the Call mapped function is limited for passing parameters.

  • Though honestly Ashley, I just want you to think about it for a second, at our standpoint. (I'm saying this respectfully) Do you really think this new built-in Functions easier to use than just use JS at this point? Because, if you ask me, it went from user-friendly Functions to puzzle-game Functions.

    Construct 3 was supposed to be user-friendly.

  • Because, there's currently no way to call a dynamic function without passing the same parameters. We could overwrite, but what about functions with more parameters?

    Ashley

  • Ashley, I guess we can't change what's done. This on the other-hand seems feasible:

    Add Parameters & Call Function (blank parameters)

    We at least could use a way to pass parameters ourselves. Cause, dynamic function-parameters are still very important. I couldn't port a project without this, it's a common function utility after all.

  • Looking forward to its release!
