  Here is a nice simple 3rd person camera for 3d stuff. Again, it’s not Fuze specific, but it’s easy enough to use. I just basically copypasted (with very slight changes) the ’move character relative to camera position’ bit for my project, and it worked! https://www.braynzarsoft.net/viewtutorial/q16390-32-simple-3rd-person-camera

  I did some quick tests, and it seems that the modified functions are definitely faster. Between 4 and 10 times in my little test scenarios...

  @Martin @vinicity thanks for catching my transposition error from the original version. I tested that version and you're correct it works as you describe. Well, just wanted to start this thread for others that happen along that pattern as well. Thanks!

  Thanks, Spt. I put a cooldown timer on my fireballs as a quick hack so they didn’t just all splurge out one per frame, but I knew I needed the thing with flags for other parts of the game. Having a ‘lock’ struct seems like a good idea, thanks!

  @vinicity It just returns an array of structs. You can make it global or local depending on what you assign the results to. I think that the change focus is currently expecting it to be global but this could be changed.

  @waldron oohh.. that sounds excellent. We could even fade out one song and the main song in. I will try that as soon my next project is ready for music ;-)

  You can break each controller down into two by yourself. Obviously this does not work for pro controllers, but it should be no problem for joycons. You would just map controls(0) to players one and two, with player one's movements mapped to the left control stick (subtracting 90 degrees from the stick movement) and the arrow buttons. Player two would then map to the right control stick (adding 90 degrees) and the a, b, x, y buttons. This way you can support eight players.
