You should post it on the issue tracker github.com/Scirra/Construct-bugs

Increases the odds of it being adressed quickly.

System > every X seconds is probably what you are looking for.

I'm self-taught and I can only comment on things I have used before, and I have never used prototypes. Tbh I don't even know what it does :D

If I understand your usecase correctly I think it can be done with classes, but I have no idea if it should be done with classes.

No harm done in trying it out. Make up a small test-case, sink an hour or two into it and see if you get stuck somewhere.

I actually like the idea. Set vectorY does not give you jumpsustain. Simulate jump doesn't work off the ground. Doublejump is doublejump.

What about classes though? I don't think there's a problem with classes, they should work fine for that purpose.
class Weapon { constructor(whatever) { this.x = 25; this.y = 5; this.whatever = whatever; } } var object = new Weapon("whatever")

Remove the key once you selected it. On the next round you just have to fill back all the data (e.g. load from json) or use a copy of the dictionary.

It is a possible risk but I'm pretty sure apple really doesn't care.

I think you can do that with system > evaluate expression. Or worst case put logic like that in javascript.

What do you mean? Virtualbox runs on your own pc. Nobody has access to your data.

I have done this before and you CAN do it relatively easy with a virtual machine.

virtualbox.org
You just have to... "find" an up to date mac ISO file and set the virtual machine up. Give it some good amount of RAM unless you want to work with a slideshow.

There's a lot to unpack there. First of all, you do know you can rename your sprites, right? Because otherwise you are gonna get really confused soon about what sprite is what :)

As for the pathfinding, here's a very basic setup that does the trick. You probably want to put the "wandering around" pathfinding into a function. You also probably should avoid to "find path" every tick. You should also know that pathfinding will fail sporadically when the target point happens to be inside a wall, that's why there is the "failed to find path" condition.
