edited November -1 in Working with GS (Mac)
Okay, so sometimes when I'm bored, I like to just pick a random application and look through its resources folder. Its just a little pointless thing I like to do. So, when I looked through GameSalad, I found all these images that had never been used in the current interface. I assumed they were from years past. All the behaviors in the resources folder were a folder that went was like "Animate.behavior" In the folder, there was two xml files and a folder called resources. If you open that up, you will see an html file with the description and maybe an animated gif representing the behavior. But, i found a behavior I hadn't seen before! A tap.me behaivior. The folder name was in the wrong pattern, with the dot not in front of the behavior word. I opened that folder and found a normal behavior type folder! It was called TapMe-OpenPowerUpsView.behavior. I look inside and there are two xmls and a folder called resources. And inside that folder, an html file that says the following:
Tap.Me - Open Power-Ups View (Action)

Display the Tap.Me power-ups view, where the player may select a power-up to activate.

Strange huh? Maybe this is a new behavior that GS is planning to release. Has anyone here seen this or knows anything?

    I searched tap.me on google! Its an advertising type thing. Also in the package contents, is an image with the tap me logo on it! GameSalad is working on a new Advertising system!

    We are also getting Kiip:

    They are going to be the first plug-ins that we get to accommodate the new plug-ins tab.

    I wouldn't get too fixed on the plug-ins being in the next release though, there are also references to Twitter posting and In-App Purchases within the Package Contents but if I remember rightly, the Twitter and In-App purchasing ones were in the package of the last release, too.

    Hello, everyone.

    These are certainly some features we've been looking into, but, like many projects, are still in very early experimental stages at the moment.

    We experiment with lots of potential new features; some pan out well and end up included publicly in Creator, other don't. Sometimes, remnants of experiments are accidentally left behind in the code and package contents and end up going out in a public build when they shouldn't.

    These items are still in the experimental stage, and as soon as they progress beyond that, I'm sure we'll have more info on them.
