FWIW, all keyboard shortcuts are listed in the manual.
As noted at the top of this guide, the Chrome web store has retired support for apps, and this information is preserved for archival reasons only.
The system 'Pick nth instance' condition does that.
I believe the 3D object is a third-party addon, so not something we are responsible for supporting or documenting.
You can already use value tweens for purposes like that.
There will be multithreading - that's explained in the next blog.
Steering/flocking is a really tough problem. I'm not sure how I'll tackle it yet, but I do think it's a really important part of it, so I'll definitely spend some time to get it right and blog about the results.
We routinely deal with feedback from users with large event-based projects and make improvements based on that feedback. We did it just this week with improvements to search in r312, for example. And 80% of my time remains on that kind of work. This is just a side project focusing on the coding features of Construct. I've already addressed many other points in both this blog post and these comments.
This violent language like "punch in the guts" and "stab in the back" is unacceptable. Please see our Forum & Community guidelines. You can disagree but you don't have to use language like that. I am going to stop responding to such remarks and may take moderation action if it carries on in future. I'll be carrying on with this project, and nobody has to follow it if they don't like it.
I genuinely don't understand this - it was apparently not controversial when I opened our latest blog on JavaScript coding with "Construct's visual block system can produce amazing results without having to write a single line of code. However if you want to go even further... then you can also write JavaScript code in Construct." Here I am now demonstrating how you can go further. I think all this talk of backstabbing and kissing the ground is way over the top.
We've been advertising JavaScript support in Construct since 2019! We're aiming to build a tool that does both visual blocks and coding really well. Maybe you don't use the coding side, and that's fine! Everyone can choose which they prefer.
Currently it does an exact match on what you type, including spaces.
Ah right, I hadn't got it opened in a popup window. You're right, it doesn't focus the popup window in that case. I fixed that for the next beta.
It's not like we're taking away anything from event sheets. Everyone can choose whichever usage suits them! We're just providing extra options: event blocks, code, or a mix of both.
In this release if the find bar is already open, pressing Ctrl+F focuses the search field in the find bar. So it looks to me like it already does this - or did you mean something else?
I meant there are already lots of examples of larger Construct games made just using events. I wasn't trying to claim that we have a big percentage of the gaming market or anything. I don't think there are any large Construct games made mainly using scripting, and I'd like to provide an example of one with this project!
I'm just doing a coding side-project, and I explained all the reasons for choosing scripting in this blog post. I don't know why you have to talk about things like backstabbing. If you don't like the idea, well... you don't have to follow the project 🤷
