 Seeing as so many people need help with events, why not just make a wiki? People could make pages for the events, what they do,how to make them, or post idea on how to make an event contraption such as pong.

Anyone for this idea?

No.
People need to use thinking skills and figure this stuff out themselves.
I've had it with babying the populace, Let's just use trial and error for once.

I think a wiki would be useful. We don't need just the basics; we can have pages for the more advanced things (pong, etc).

OK, Pages for pong and such, Fine.
But I still think trial and error work better.

I think it is better just to look at it in game.

I figure things out by opening ones that work and seeing what makes them work.



Just save some stuff and see what makes it tick and you will learn.  I did that, and now i know how the pong projectile works.

For now, anyone who's struggling with the events:

Input Event: this is what triggers the event to happen. For example, onActivate means that clicking the brick will cause the event to occur.

Target: the target is what the event will affect. Self is the brick with the event, player is the player that triggers it (in onActivate or such), etc.

Output Event: this is the event that happens. Most of them are self-explanitory, like setVelocity or playSound. If you don't understand one, try it out.

Output Parameters: these are extra things needed for some events, such as the sound playSound uses, or the direction/power setVelocity uses.

Someone wanna expand on this and start the wiki? Feel free.

MAYBE* DIFFERENT* One space between words, capitalize the begging of sentences Put periods at the end of sentences, Etc. Etc.
