    Do you mean to defend people's right to be abusive to Scirra staff? How is that even up for debate? It is so completely unacceptable that I strongly encourage anyone who thinks that to leave. Go and use someone else's software if you really think that.

    With all due respect that was never the case and never will be. And not only to Scirra staff but to anyone. We have taken action for the personnal attack you received, and are always taking action as soon as anyone is attacked and/or harrassed. If you had read our rules, you'd know that we don't allow that.

    Please, I nicely ask that you calm down, and stop putting words in other people's mouth. He said that the discord server allowed for some discussions to continue outside the forums if they were closed. I don't know what you exactly mean by "people [who] cannot abide by basic rules of civilised conduct" but you know that in a forum discussion it's rarely only one or two members and some other people might wanna keep on discussing the topic without seeing the discussion closed because someone else couldn't keep things respectful.

  • dop2000 Basically the only advantage it has is if you only need a stack specifically. But yeah you can do everything with an array as well. It's really just for specific cases where you don't need more than the stack features.

    The same applies to my Queue plugin btw.

  • Hey,

    This tool is a life savior. It's extremely cool, so thank you!

    I have some suggestions though:

    The tool fails to add ACEs when the ACEs functions in editor.js aren't all ending with a ";".

    I know it's better to have them, but when I copy some code, especially from the default sdk provided, I sometimes forget to add these.

    The tool stops when it encounters an "AddFunctionNameParam" or an "AddAnimationParam" which are hidden param features that are no longer available in C3. So I'd recommend to change them with an "AddStringParam" as it doesn't change anything (else than the C2 specific editor features).

    It would be cool if these got fixed, even though they're pretty easily fixed by hand before the conversion.

  • GameeApp You told me that I could modify the plugin, but it doesn't seem really modifyable...

  • ACE's are now detected an automatically listed for Construct 3 plugins. This will not be extended for C2 for the time being.

    Example:

    https://www.construct.net/gb/make-games/addons/29/queue/aces

    The button "ACEs" redirects to the main plugin page ^^

    But that's great

  • Well, you might be interested in this:

    https://github.com/armaldio/c2-addon-parser

    armaldio made a thing that retrieves ACEs from c2 addons and generates a .md file from github.

    (Edit: Btw, I can't upload images for C2 addons. The same issue that I had yesterday with C3, but now with C2)

  • Hey, I made a tool to generate the ACEs tabs for the addon exchange. Do you think this could be implemented at some point inside the addon exchange itself? Or even have it detect ACEs and do it on its own?

  • Hey, I'm sure all of you know that the new addon database is up, and allows addon developers to upload their stuff.

    It also features amazing stuff for the presentation of the plugin, including tabs and tables.

    So I made a cool tool to generate the string that you'll paste in your description to have your ACEs displayed in tabs.

    http://aces.surge.sh/

    For example, it generates a code like this:

    [h1]Aces[/h1]
[tabgroup]
    [tab title='Conditions']
    [dl sans-serif]
        [dt]Is Empty[/dt]
        [dd]Returns true if the stack is empty[/dd]
    [/dl]
    [dl sans-serif]
        [dt]Compare top[/dt]
        [dd]Allows you to compare the value at the top of the stack[/dd]
    [/dl]
    [dl sans-serif]
        [dt]Compare length[/dt]
        [dd]Allows you to compare the length of the stack[/dd]
    [/dl]
    [/tab]
    [tab title="Actions"]
    [dl sans-serif]
        [dt]Push[/dt]
        [dd]Add a value at the top of the stack[/dd]
    [/dl]
    [dl sans-serif]
        [dt]Pop[/dt]
        [dd]Remove the value at the top of the stack[/dd]
    [/dl]
    [dl sans-serif]
        [dt]Load[/dt]
        [dd]Load the stack from a JSON string[/dd]
    [/dl]
    [dl sans-serif]
        [dt]Clear[/dt]
        [dd]Clears the stack[/dd]
    [/dl]
    [/tab]
    [tab title="Expressions"]
    [dl sans-serif]
        [dt]Peak[/dt]
        [dd]Returns the value at the top of the stack[/dd]
    [/dl]
    [dl sans-serif]
        [dt]Pop[/dt]
        [dd]Returns the value at the top of the stack and removes it[/dd]
    [/dl]
    [dl sans-serif]
        [dt]ToJSON[/dt]
        [dd]Returns the stack in JSON format[/dd]
    [/dl]
    [dl sans-serif]
        [dt]Length[/dt]
        [dd]Returns the length of the stack[/dd]
    [/dl]
    [/tab]
[/tabgroup][/code:2z699h12]

And it looks like this:

That'd be amazing if the page already had a service that does this, but it's already amazing. Great work! @Tom

  • — Hello! I don't really plan on adding a typewriter effect in this specific plugin, but I plan on making a typewriter behavior that works with my plugin, and also with other regular spritefont plugins.

    I the meantime there are really good (and already available) typewriter stuff that you can find. But if you need a behavior, be sure to stay tuned for what I do, cause this might be coming pretty soon!

    EDIT: Note that the plugin comes with a basic typewriter effect (that doesn't have the speed thing you want sadly).

  • GameeApp Hi! I'd really like to use the ghost and replay modes but I saw that they are not available here. I really think that using them would add a lot to the game I'm making so I'm asking if it's possible to add them. Or if you can't, do you allow me to modify the plugin in order to make them available?
