As of late 2021, we are in the process of updating Stencylpedia and fixing up outdated & broken content. Thanks for your patience!
What are Pre-Shipped Behaviors?
Stencyl includes several dozen of the most common and useful behaviors. Why? Because it's no fun reinventing the wheel or foraging around on StencylForge when you could get the "real" thing out of the box.
To find them, just begin attaching a behavior to an Actor or Scene like you'd normally do.
Then, pick something from the FROM YOUR LIBRARY section.

Can I disable the drag and drop behavior once an actor is inside a region? I want the actor to stay there trapped until the scene ends.

Installed 2.0. Using 2.0. Went to actor > add behavior > pick something from the "From Your Library" section not there. No new behaviors. No new options. Help -_-

Just incase anyone else is an real beginner like me and had no idea where to find them I'll help you out.
Go into the character you're using, click on behaviors up the top, then down the bottom left is "add behavior" where you'll find them.
