Hi Ashley, do we have official interfaces for the following:
1. GetRuntime().GetTickCount()
2. GetRuntime().GetProjectUniqueId()
3. CallExpression()
4. CallAction()
I'm also planning to port abandoned plugins from other authors. Can I keep this thread active just in case I find others I need in the future?

Thank you.

Hi Ashley,

I've noticed that this functions similarly to the Scripting Interface, as it currently references the name of the object. Is there a way to reference the Object Type instead? Specifically, in this case, to retrieve the Single Global Instance.

The issue arises when the user changes the object name, causing the plugin to stop working.

I considered looping through the list of objects, but that feels like overkill.

Could there be an API method that I'm overlooking?

Thank you!

Hi Ashley, do we have a counterpart for the Facebook API's GetAccessToken() and GetSingleGlobalObjectClassByCtor(C3.Plugins.Facebook) in the Addon SDK v2?

Reference: construct.net/en/make-games/manuals/addon-sdk/runtime-reference/addon-interfaces/facebook

Thank you.

Yeah, a new version of the Construct Master Collection will be released soon with Photon plugins with SDK v2 support.

Regarding Exit Games, it's unfortunate that they no longer support Construct 3, but I understand. In general, small companies try to make it easier for big companies to adopt their services in order to gain traction. Construct 3, on the other hand, is doing the opposite with SDK v2.

These Pro UI plugins should be ported to Addon SDK v2 and made available in upcoming releases of the Construct Master Collection (linked here: https://www.construct.net/en/forum/construct-3/plugin-sdk-10/construct-master-collection-139046).

We've used these plugins in three of our main projects, so it's important to ensure their continued availability.

I believe the Construct Master Collection could also serve as a safeguard for abandoned plugins in the future, at least for open-source ones, ensuring their continued availability.

The fact that the Construct Master Collection has existed since 2018 and is still maintaining the included plugins gives us some confidence in undertaking such a project. It offers hope to those using the Construct 3 engine for professional development.

There are new plugins, important bug fixes and maintenance updates in this new release, so make sure to check it out and update your plugins!

Hi Ashley, how about the Construct 3 Build Service for the LTS releases?

Hi, old versions seem to be supported indefinitely. This has always been the case, even with Construct 2. For Construct 3, you simply need to use the link (https://editor.construct.net/rXXX/) as mentioned in the first reply.

A more established alternative, however, is using LTS (Long Term Solution?) releases.

You are one of the best candidates to use LTS releases.

I believe the build service will update independently, but in parallel with the main releases. Hence, updates will also benefit the LTS releases.

I see some of my plugins there, though. On my part, I have already updated all plugins to SDK v2. I'm just finishing up testing with the alpha testers, and it should be good to go soon. I had to hold out after finding out the migration wasn't always a direct port.

For the rest of your plugins, I guess that's what the LTS releases are for. I have plugins that the authors have already abandoned, and I'm thinking about porting them myself.
