✨ New features

Space shooter example

  • Behaviors can now have properties - that can be number, strings or booleans (checkboxes). It's perfect to make behaviors that are customizable.
    • These properties can be displayed in the editor when the behavior is added to an object
    • After adding a property to a behavior, you can modify and compare the value of the property using actions/conditions generated for it (only in the behavior events).
    • Some properties can also be marked as not visible in the editor. It's useful to store internal state for a behavior, like the amount of ammo, health, etc...
