  You would average the xy's

  (x1 + x2)/2

  (y1 + y2)/2

  In this scenario.

  Same formula for the restriction, but setting object xy's including the "clamp(value,min, max)" expression.

  You would be better off replicating the way eventing works in another engine.

  Unity already has a few at no real comparison from what I understand.

  Godot has an event system as well, but its spaghetti.

  Additionally I would suggest staying away from non open source engines.

  Take a look at "AngleAt(index)"

  construct.net/make-games/manuals/construct-3/plugin-reference/touch

  You'll want to compare the angle within a range.

  Not unless you make an event that targets javascript.

  You currently can't. The recommendation is to use another frame.

  Line of sight is for picking instances in front of other objects, and picking instances by means other than the system distance() expression.

  You may need to adjust the Los default settings however.

  There are a few use cases where you do have to limit the number of files.

  Iab calls for 15 I think.

  File size is another issue to consider.

  Anything you want to do to it needs to be done when you create it.

  Nope. You don't want a list of strings sitting around in the runtime anyway. That's too easy to hack.

  Make your own id in variables, or an array etc.

  Nope, but then again most specs call for zips rather than .html.
