Cloner

Cloner is a Spark AR tool for dynamically instantiating blocks and controlling them without coding.

You can do the following things in Patch Editor:

Install

Download Cloner.js (Right click and Save as)
Download Cloner.arblock
Drag/Drop both of them to your Spark AR project.
Add capability: Project > Edit Properties > Capabilities > + > Scripting Dynamic Instantiation
You can also Click Here to Download a Sample Project (v112).

Drag the Cloner Block to Scene and set inputs, these are basic settings:

Inputs	Type	Description
Instantiate	Pulse	Trigger this to create an instance.
Clear	Pulse	Trigger this to clear all instance.
Block Name	Text	The name of the block to be instantiated.
Parent Name	Text	The name of the scene object that holds instance.

The following settings are used to control instance's Transform:

Inputs	Type	Description
Control Index	Number	The index of instance to be controlled. The index is start from `0`. `-1` means the last instantiated instance; `-2` means all of instances.
Position	Vector 3	The position of controlled instance.
Scale	Vector 3	The scale of controlled instance.
Rotation	Vector 3	The rotation of controlled instance.

You can control the Inputs of instance block with following advanced setting:

Inputs	Type	Description
Prefix	Text	The prefix of To Script varaible name.
Inputs	Text	The map to bridge instance's Inputs to To Script. Learn more.

The map pattern should look like this: Name:type,Name:type,Name:type.

e.g. Your block has four property:

If you want to control the Floaing, Frequency and Color B, the map is;

Floating:b,Frequency:n,Color B:c

And then you need to add the the following To Script variables:

After restart, you can set these variables in Patch Editor.
