Your example is just working here and there for me too.

Ball1.Physics.ContactCount>0

That works consistently for me, this is 100% the way to go. I suggest you can call a raycast here towards ContactX/Y (+ some extra distance otherwise the raycast may be too short) if you need to know what exactly was hit since you can get the UID of the hit object like that.

You're in luck, that's a feature of bbcode!

[icon=0] or [icon=tag] - insert an icon to the text. The icons are taken from the animation frames of a Sprite object set in the Icon set property. The icon can be referred to by its zero-based frame index, or by the Tag property of the animation frame.

Call me silly but I don't fully trust "Wait for previous actions to complete" I almost always use the trigger conditions. Feels more robust to me, can't explain it. There were some bugs with "wait for previous" when it was introduced iirc, maybe that's why. It does come in handy in some cases though.

I had this exact issue except not on Steam Deck. In my case the setting for "Steam input" was incorrect. I set it to use "Steam input" and for some reason this made the xbox controller not work/be detected properly.

You can also quickly test and disable this in the steam library: right-clicking the game in the library -> properties -> controller

If it's enabled there you can try disabling it. If that fixes it as it did for me, you have to change the settings for steam input in the backend.

You are opening the console for the construct editor instead of the preview window.

Asynchronous functions simply have the benefit of being able to use "wait for previous actions to complete" so you can do a bunch of stuff inside that function like tweens and wait for all of them complete before you do the next thing.

A heavy function like that in Construct will simply attempt to run inside a single tick, that's why there's a freeze. You might have to split this up to avoid the freezing, like adding 1000000 per tick over the course of 100 ticks. Which takes a little over 1.5 seconds to complete at 60 fps. I don't think there's a construct build-in way to do this.

Thought I'd post it here too. Bumbly Bee is now available on Poki temporarily. As in it's currently being evaluated if "it's a fit". Go try it out!
