I meant event sheets like Deadeye said. Global objects are accessible via events in any event sheet in the application, and global objects are created when their layout is visited for the first time. So if you have a global object copied and pasted through layouts 1, 2 and 3, and you keep using 'next layout', by the 3rd layout you have 3 instances. However, global objects on the first layout are always created when you 'run layout' in Construct.

No, that's not right... you should only need one global object on one layout, then it should appear everywhere...

Just curious, what does that feature do?

Timescaling - slow motion effects, stop time, speed up time, etc.

Parts of the Array object were 1-based and other parts were 0-based, like the Array(x, y, z) retrieving syntax. I've fixed it for the next build - it should all be 1-based then.

I've added expressions to get the rotate speed/acceleration for the next build. As a workaround until then, it's quite simple to re-do the behavior with events and private variables.

Sounds like fun, don't forget that Construct has the Timescaling feature, which you may find handy for this compo

You have to log in to the Wiki before you appear on the user list. I can't make you editor until you do that.

Yes, that should work. You can see the looping conditions indent slightly to show the nesting. You could also test it yourself by making the line add something like x,y to a listbox and see the output you get.

You can also nest with subevents - but generally I prefer the look of same-event nested loops like in your picture.

I think maybe a 'hidden features' article would be appropriate...

Download Plugin SDK 0.98.8 now

This SDK introduces some important changes.
- As usual, new runtime/edittime interface functions added since 0.98.5 are exposed.
- The Win32 Static VC8 (Visual Studio 2005) solution file now opens correctly. Visual Studio 2008 had previously accidentally overwritten the 2005 project file.
- The Win32 Static VC8-9 SDK has an important configuration change to remove a dependency on the C runtime. You should rebuild any plugins you have from a previous SDK using these settings. Only the Linker Input settings have changed; you can copy them to your old SDK if it's easier. Otherwise, some users will receive a "Filename.csx could not be loaded (error 14001)" error message while starting up Construct.
Remember you can find lots of example code on the CVS (Plugins module, Behaviors module).
