Tier 1, AppGameKit 2017.9.4

I've been trying to extract a float value from some custom tweens added to a tweenchain using GetTweenCustomFloat1, GetTweenCustomFloat2 etc with no luck.

I can fake the desired behaviour using tween sprites but are custom tweens working in tween chains?




Problem 2: CreateTweenCustom doesn't work if its duration is set to 0. SetTweenDuration later in the code does nothing; minor but annoying to track down.

Unfortunately you cannot use the tween chain ID to access the values from a custom tween, you must use the original custom tween IDs to access the custom values.

Using a duration value of 0 will generate an error, since the tween will never do anything. Using SetErrorMode(2) will display errors.

Righto.

On the second point, the tween will do something if it's later set to a duration longer than 0 using the setTweenDuration(id, duration#) command surely? Doesn't really matter as I can initialise them to 1.0 first but it did cause non-functioning tweens until I figured out the reason.
