How do you use your code?

As a new Stencyl utilizer I often find myself creating code to try out certain behaviors. To feel free to develop parts of the game in which I have more difficulty, I sometimes create new projects different from the original one so as not to be confused with the code already written and working. But now how do I take the code from a project and copy it to another project without opening and closing the two projects many times?

Exporting the actor or behavior would certainly do it, but that still involves closing and opening the two projects.

I don’t know if this can still be done, but when I rebuilt my game a while back, I had two copies of Stencyl open and I copied and pasted between the two of them. Worked just fine at the time. When editing a behavior, you can click it’s event name and copy/paste that between Stencyls. Just create a blank behavior to paste into on your main project.

There is also a way to have behaviours be able to be used through multiple games as it is mentioned this is possible in Merrak's post in the Useful Tips thread: http://community.stencyl.com/index.php/topic,54852.msg293759.html#new

Hi,
i use a very simple way. Open Stencyl twice and copy/paste it over (Game strributes are not copy/pasted over).
Works for me on Windows. Havent tried on MAC.

Cheers!
