Try it.

If you don't give up, you might actually have hope. It is tedious work

I don't know if this is too much to ask, but making "find and replace" usable? I quite often run in to events and think "In what way and where did i use global('pause')" and then i look at the find and replace-button with sad puppy eyes before i start plowing through the endless mass of events.

Now that is an excellent example where I want to step up onto the soap box and rally to the DRY cause - Don't Repeat Yourself. There is also DIE (Duplication Is Evil).

There is a lot of duplicated code in event sheet and stuff, mostly because event groups are a bit bulky to work with and function object (functions, aliases) is dodgy as well as unreliable (considering that it actually executes after the tick or something, when I need conditions or actions to be checked the very tick).

It would be a boon if Construct strived toward DRY code with improved code abstraction

Not done.

What?

Who are you?

Just kiding. Welcome back

I meant to say that it should be optional. Then we could use whatever language we were the most comfortable with.

Sprite pasting into Canvas is pretty fast compared to the image manipulator. In fact, it is lightning years ahead.

Well, problem is the image manipulator is terribly inefficient, bringing the FPS down to single digits at times.

Yeah, I'd totally recommend seeing the movie if anyone hasn't yet

Bespectacle One,

your game looks so pretty with all the colors and darkness

Actually, that is saint11's game. The Bespectacled One and quote tags don't seem to mix well.

I wouldn't mind Construct with Ruby scripting instead of Python.

Yeah, my observation was that mixing python and Construct events results in a significant performance drop compared to using events or script exclusively. All those calls back and forth take a heavy toll.
