Release 8.0 : Major Stable Upgrade

Release 8.0 :: Major Stable Upgrade

The Construct Master Collection has released its 8th Major Stable Upgrade. It should be the last stable release for the year 2019.
It comes with new engine feature addons, under the Game Master Collection:

• AI : https://www.constructcollection.com/construct-game-ai
• Engine : https://www.constructcollection.com/construct-game-engine
• Tick : https://www.constructcollection.com/construct-game-tick

The new AI addon is a behavior that replaces the depreciated AI Behavior, it is a refactored artificial intelligence addon, with features, to wit:

• Refactored for simplicity
• Efficient [10/10 rated]
• Blazing Fast [10/10 rated]
• Custom made for Construct 2 and Construct 3.
• Optimized for c3runtime.
• Intelligence Algorithm, written from scratch for Construct's architecture.

Here's the tutorial for the AI addon, for more information.
You can also check out the Performance Rating and the Feature Showcase from the AI addon page.

The new Engine addon extends the features of the c3runtime engine with features ChadoriXD「茶どり」uses in his projects. It's still new, although it will overtime get added with more tools. Due to this, it won't be documented the usual way the other addons are documented, since it doesn't have a single target implementation goal. 
Hence, it will be documented by release, with a test project / test projects for each new release, while the documentation website will only be updated with the new ACEs, for each update.

The Tick addon allows the game engine to run an event in an interval greater than a tick, efficiently. Effectively slowing down computation and reducing redundant calculations, hence significantly improving game performance.
This feature is a community effort which I've just wrapped into an addon. To get to know who thought of the idea, visit the Construct Community.

There are also bug fixes and improvements on this release:
