AACT 2.0.14 - Release Notes

2 years ago

Added:

  • Added a new textcode: SPACES. This text code will be replaced with a specified amount of spaces.
  • Variables can now be used as parameter value.
  • The "HideTextBox" Instruction is making a return.
  • Added the option to customize the text of the EvidenceSwitchButton in the court record via the "meta" attribute.
  • Added a "GenerateRandom" instruction that randomizes the value of a variable, depending on its type.
  • Added an F5 hotkey to Quick Test a script in the Code Editor.
  • Evidence of the type "Book" now support images from within. The images used must be in the same folder as the thumbnail.
  • Added SetTimer and StopTimer instructions. At some point in the future, you'll be able to display the timer, even.

Changed:

  • Changed how string variables are handled to make it easier to use quotes inside the value.
  • Changed the highlighting color of the TIME text code to a brighter color.
  • SetChar now hides the textbox.
  • SelectSpot can now be used without any parameters, which has a similar effect like PickEvidence.
  • PickEvidence with only one argument can now be used in cross examinations. They will always play the SEV statement instruction.
  • Switched from double precision floating-point numbers to 32-bit integers as AACT's numerical type. Aka, 10 divided by 4 is now 2, not 2.5.
  • Changed the format of the TSC arguments slightly.
  • Made it easier to use TSC manually.

Fixed:

  • Fixed string subtraction not working.
  • Fixed boolean literals not being treated as case insensitive.
  • Fixed characters falling out of sync with the camera after moving it to its current position. In other words, if the camera was moved to the same coordinates it's currently at, the background remained in place, while characters still moved.
  • Fixed the popup editor crashing when closing it without any changes.
  • Fixed an issue in the Character Editor where sprite animations would be stopped but don't disappear when leaving the sprite area with the mouse cursor.
  • Fixed a bug where AACT crashes if health reaches 0 unless you have 2147483646 chapters.
  • Fixed an issue where some GUI elements are not mapped to the correct element kind (for themes), which resulted in some settings not being applied when using custom themes.
  • Fixed FadeOutScene not working when the camera is not at (0,0);
