2) All the features can be used in an episode so I can apply it to any level of it?

Anyway, this is an awesome project, It will be really useful for me

Like don't get me wrong, if you're at all interested in learning lua this is not going to help you, but if you're someone who doesn't have the time to learn coding but still want to mess around with autoscroll or something, this is what you want.

Taycamgame wrote:Got it installed correctly. Can this be used to create "Dark Levels", where the area is dark like a cave? If not, how do i make that happen?

Taycamgame wrote:For the pipecannons, is the speed equal to the number of blocks that it launches at? So if i wanted the cannon to launch the player up 10 blocks, would i set the speed to 10?
