Hello! In order to create variables, you go to "Variables -> Create variable..."

As for the video support on choice4genesis, I haven't started implementing the integration, yet.

That's weird; what browser are you using? Does some error appear on the browser's console when clicking the button?

ah im not in browser Im using the downloaded stand alone version. Also how to create a missile or ball/thanks!

Okay, I will take a look at the standalone version, later.

As for setting up missile or ball, please take a look at the "Examples" section: there's an example for firing a missile on button press.

the missile example works really helps to see how its done. Do you have a bouncy ball example too? Thanks !

haroldo-ok152 days ago

I could add that to the examples.

It seems there's indeed a limitation/bug on Electron when displaying the popup for creating a variable:

Okay, fixed the bug: the standalone Windows version is now creating variables correctly:
