a short question about programming:
– are all features aviable to puzzles also aviable in code?
– if so, is there a documentation on the function calls/names/usage, similar to the puzzles doc?

Hi,

Yep. The Puzzles are translated to JavaScript. You can check out the generated code by opening the human-readable visual_logic.js found in your app folder.

nice. all those script references!

looking at the teapot heater example logic helped me a lot. makes me confident that i will will find all needed features, and this engine would be viable.

p.e. app.controls.tween does not appear in the documentation. also takes a mysterious 4th argument “doSlot”, which is mostly an empty function.
but it is usable as is, so not really a problem.
