I personally have not used the plugin but I believe those parameters you mentioned can be any string ("text" with quotes). They are for your references to track.

You can try lerp 0.1 or lower to slow down the deceleration time.

lerp(self.speed, normalSpd, 0.1)

Just don't go too low like 0.0001. Fastest is 1 which is basically instant.

Assuming you're building solely for the web and not exporting it to a wrapper for iOS(Xcode) and Android (APK).

You can use this plugin by —: construct.net/en/make-games/addons/307/google-analytics-handy/documentation

The documentation is here: imcsw.com/2019/07/15/handy-utilities-plugin as stated on the plugin page.

You can use the if LocalStorage: On item "consent" exists, then set a global variable boolean to true, (make sure you created a global variable boolean on the event sheet). All actions that calls for a "send event" from the plugin must meet the condition of this boolean. This also applies to setting it true or false depending on which button the user click/tap, (Accept/decline).

That way, if the boolean is false, which means the user declined to consent, the analytic event will not be sent.

to add timers like this to things i usually use a variable and then have an event that sets to variable to the time you want and an event that continuously removes time from that variable.

for example: You make an instance variable on you player called "boosting"

then for example

When shift key pressed - set "boosting" to 0.5 (this gives you the amount of time you are after)

then you link the action you are seeking to that variable being greater than 0. e.g.

If player.boosting > 0 - set max speed to 100(or whatever u want)

Inside this event you have a sub event that handles the countdown of the variable

so sub event: -- every 0.1sec subtract 0.1 from player.boosting

then finally you have an event that resets the action to normal when the counter has run down

If player.boosting =<0 - set max speed to 50(or standard speed)

Here is an example that i did for someone else of the same technique, that means that for 5 seconds after a player has overlapped the blood pool, they will produce bloody footsteps while moving. Same method.

And also to add to this, you can also use the Timer behavior. When you dash, set timer with the tag "dash" and duration of the dash.

If "dash" timer is running, set speed to dash speed.

if "dash" timer NOT running, set speed to lerp() back to normal speed.

You can also add that only if the "dash" timer is NOT running, you can hit "shift" to dash.

Try not to use wait like this as you can't really cancel the wait once it is running.

The best way is to either use a boolean with a "state" to check if an actions is currently executing.

Or another way is to use the Timer behavior. Use the timer as the "wait". Then on timer "tag" execute the actions. Also this way you could stop a particular time with the "tag".

I'm building a top-down game that has dynamic movement through multiple Z elevation. There are multiple lighting torches behind multiple Z platforms which the player transitions through.

The issue that I'm getting is that the flashlight effect requires you to have the flashlight sprite on a different layer on top of my top-down platforms (according to the Simple Lighting Example in C3).

I can't seem to have those torches behind some sprites as they are on a different layer on top. Basically all the torches just appears on top of everything even if their Z elevations are correctly positioned on multiple Z elevation platforms.

Perhaps I'm missing some blend modes that I couldn't wrap my head around that works within a layer.

This problem gets even complicated when there is a day-night system.

The light blue/turquoise highlights are like lightsabers to my eyes

The texts throughout the forums and website have issues with word wrapping. Many times you find words that are chopped to next line.

I think you might only be able to go to a URL in a new window to open the browser. Otherwise I think you'll need to specifically whitelist every URL or origin you want to be able to navigate to in Cordova.

Come to think of it, I'm not sure if such apps are actually allowed on the app stores. I think iOS in particular has restrictions on this. If it loads from the web then there's zero guarantee that what the app reviewers see is what will actually be in the app when it's published, so they may block that.

I thought about using the "Add to Home screen" feature for my game on my android device. This way it would not have to go through the store. Unfortunately when I go offline, my game doesn't load and gives the offline dinosaur. What gives?

Is there a list of C3 plug-ins currently available to test out? Maybe Kyatric could make a pinned post with a list of already available C3 plug-ins, aside from the request for conversion pinned post.

Would love to lend my hand and test them out.
