  Heh, don't forget Canvas, you get r,g,b, and a at xy.

  Isn't this only 3D array? Values r,g,b,a are all on one axis.

  You can store UIDs of sub-arrays, or sub-arrays as JSON strings, or simply comma-separated strings of values. I can't think of any other option.

  Actually, if you have multiple instances of 3D array, you can think of them as of one 4D array :)

  Are these top-level events, or sub-events under "Every X seconds" or something similar? As top-level events they should work fine. It will be much easier if you could share your project file.

  You are re-initializing tween on every tick, this will never work.

  Why don't you use a simple lerp? Here is a demo:

  Or you can just pin a cone sprite to the character.

  Here is a more advanced version:

  When you export your project, you should get a bunch of .js files.

  I believe your code is in data.js, but yeah, it's pretty much unreadable.

  Function parameters can be used to pass data to the function.

  Imagine you have a function "PlayerAddHealth", you need to tell it how much health points you want to add. So you do this with a parameter:

  Player on collision with HealthPotion
  ... Function Call "PlayerAddHealth", parameter: 20
  
  On Function "PlayerAddHealth"
  ... Player add to health Function.param(0)
  ... StatusText set text "Healed for " & Function.param(0) & " points!"
  

  .

  As for the "offset", I don't understand your question. Which offset?

  This setting has nothing to do with time. "Scale rate" is a confusing name, it should probably be called "scale factor" instead.

  When you change layout scale to 2 for example, this setting defines how each layer will be scaled. With layer scale rate set to 100, this layer will zoom to 200%. With scale rate 50, the layer will zoom to 150%.

  There must be something wrong with your code, please post a screenshot or your project file.

  I know there are a few QR Code plugins for Construct 2 (try googling).

  If you can't find a plugin for C3, you can try this tool:

  Have you actually tried your code with multiple enemies? It should work correctly.

  If you want, you can use "System For Each" enemy, but in this case it's not needed.

  You can parse this string using a series of system expressions tokenat, replace, find, mid, left, right etc. See this link:

  scirra.com/manual/126/system-expressions

  For example, if you have a string {"token":"000000000000000000","privatetoken":"1111111111111111111111111111"} in variable Var and you need to extract the privatetoken value, you can do this:

  // first remove all characters {, } and " from the string
  Set Var to replace(Var, "{", "")
  Set Var to replace(Var, "}", "")
  Set Var to replace(Var, """", "")
  
  // then extract the provatetoken value
  Set Var to tokenat(Var, 1, ",")
  Set Var to tokenat(Var, 1, ":")
