Child Events (Aka Nested Events)
Faster loading and saving,
An improved global event editor,
A global Find All function to find any text in the entire application,
A faster Windows runtime with optimized memory use and a DirectX 11 mode,
An event profiler to find the bottlenecks in your events,
A new output window in the debugger
and a lot more!

We will be releasing this as brand new paid DLC for both Standard and Developer on Standalone and Steam flavors. We anticipate release sometime between mid February and end of March. Those of you who want to participate in early access testing can do so through our Patreon Reactor program, more information here: Please login to see this link.

So excited for this! Every new feature has been highly requested!

Child events goes without saying, that will be massive. "Global Find All" will really help me as my project is getting hard to navigate in the event editor. Faster runtime+Direct X11 is always great! I'm hoping the debugger improvements means it also runs faster.. my project drops to like 5 frames per second if I open the debugger.

Also excited about the "and a lot more!"

Looking forward to test this Baby

Is it possible to implement real-time shader updates/load shader at runtime and from file or string as I’ve been working on a visual shader editor for fusion 2.5 and need this feature. For the meantime I’ll be able to get it working with firefly

Very nice! Eager to dig into this once it’s releases. Faster Windows runtime may be just what I need for man issue my application has been having. Will that improve the Standard runtime?

N64Mario · January 11, 2019 at 2:58 AM

Interesting. Guess I'll be looking forward to this.

Although I am not a steam user. The last thing I bought was the CD for Fusion 2.5. I guess we'll see in due time.

Copying and pasting some stuff from the other thread lol.

How is the global event editor improved? Are you now able to reference groups inside of it?

What is the benefit of direct x 11 mode? Surely not significant? Isn't 9 often slower than 8? Shouldn't we expect even more of a potential performance decrease for DX11? Is the main benefit in the realm of shaders?

I have subscribed and posted something in the Community Tab, I hope that's enough to participate?

Can I get an estimate on the price of this? Or has it not been decided yet?

Very interesting, if it's true that we'll be able to use qualifiers in global events, I'll buy this on day one. I'm wondering what the advantage of dx11 is?

casleziro · January 11, 2019 at 7:56 AM

Also, please tell me the dreaded "overlap delay bug" has finally been exterminated xD

SirEatAlot · January 11, 2019 at 3:56 PM

signed up for beta testing on patreon! really looking forward to this in my current project, the profiler looks really useful not to mention nested events! great work

Joshtek · January 11, 2019 at 7:01 PM

Thanks for the update. This sounds great for improving productivity and should make it easier to manage events for larger projects.

Kisguri · January 11, 2019 at 7:31 PM

Glad you like the update Joshtek!

Is there any possibility that you will release a flippable active object (or a scale x/y with negative value)?
This will save a lot of memory and time.
