Note: This is an AC action made to allow sending events. Script Author's quote:
Hi! We wanted to add Unity Analytics for our game to see which puzzles are easy and which ones are hard. So I wrote up a little custom Action to do this. I can't guarantee that it's all correct code but this version should work and I also added the possibility to use AC Variables as parameters to send to Unity Analytics. Check it out
To use it replace the text in a .cs file named ActionAnalyticsSendEvent with this text, or create a new blank text file, then paste the text and rename the file ActionAnalyticsSendEvent.cs. Then drop the file into the folder named actions inside the Adventure creator folder. Then, just use the action in an action list.
This is the code:
/*
*
* Adventure Creator Action: Unity Analytics
* by Jens Bahr, 2016
*
* "ActionAnalyticsSendEvent.cs"
*
* This action sends custom data to Unity Analytics.
*
