✨ New features

• ✨Introducing Functions ⚙️. Functions allow you to create new actions, conditions or expressions using events.
  • This is an advanced and very powerful feature: Functions will be shareable in the near future, allowing for even faster game creation and sharing of features between games.
  • Read more about functions on the wiki. 📚
  • This feature is in alpha mode (and may slightly evolve). You must enable it manually in the preferences. Please report any issue!
• 🔊Added jsfx, a sound generator that can be used to create sound effects in record time for your games.
  • Open it by clicking on the pen next the audio file in actions to play sounds.
  • Thanks @blurymind for suggesting and implementing this addition.
