Getting Started--> Adding Paths tutorial

[Just4Fun]

I'm wondering if someone could please help me clarify a question that I have about Paths.

The tutorial mentions using a formula to figure out the path duration.

"If your game runs at 30 fps (frames per second) and your path has 60 frames, the total duration will be 2 seconds."

Then the tutorial mentions filling in the "Frame" input box. However, the input in the tutorial is 90 frames. (Add 30 +60?-2 is never used.) I don't get it! TIA

If your game run at 30fps and have a 90 frame path, the path duration will be 90/30 = 3 seconds.

So:

1. Duration is only used to compute how long it will take to complete the path?

2. Duration isn't used when settting up the initial Path?

Yes

2. Duration isn't used when settting up the initial Path?

The only way to inform the duration is in the initial setup
