I don't know.. My method of debugging issues like this is to add console output to all events and into the script - to see the order in which they are executing and how the value of the variable changes.

Ok, I was wrong, "Wait for previous action" actually does wait for the script to finish if there is "await" in the script. But I tested and it works the same regardless of whether it's inside a function or not.

Maybe the script sometimes runs a bit faster and can actually finish in one tick. You can easily test this by replacing "Wait for previous action" with "Wait 1 second".

Even though I checked via console that the local var signed_in is indeed set to 1.

The only possible explanation why the marked events are skipped is that the variables checks return false.

I'm not sure if you can use "Wait for previous action" to wait for the script to finish executing. My guess is that it just waits one tick and continues running other events, while logged_in value is still 0.

I would suggest adding Browser Log after "Wait for previous action" action to check the value of logged_in variable.

Global sprite will not appear by itself on the first layout, you need to put it on that layout in the editor. (or create it in runtime)

Make sure you only put it on one layout, otherwise you may have end up with several instances of that sprite, because global objects are not destroyed when you switch between layouts.

Use Text.TextWidth and Text.TextHeight expressions.

If it's not listed in the Addons section, you will need to search the forum.

Here are a couple of links with popular addons:

You can try adding one of these Cordova plugins to your project. You will have to call their methods with scripting though.

Two options:

1. Loop through all tiles and check if they are empty.

2. Get Tilemap.TilesJSON of an empty tilemap and save it to a variable. When you need to check if a tilemap is empty, compare its TilesJSON with that string saved in the variable.

For example, the JSON of an empty tilemap may look like this:
{"c2tilemap":true,"width":53,"height":30,"data":"1590x-1"}

But in your case it may be different.

What if a person has this app on their phone, but not planning to use it to hack your game? They will not be able to play and will give your game a negative feedback.

Looks like there is no action to change listbox type.

What you can try is the new templates feature - create several listboxes on a separate (unused) layout, configure them as you like. And then set them as templates and give them template names. Then you should be able to create a specific listbox by specifying the template name, for example "password_input".
