Event link trigger
The Event Link trigger spawns a group if certain conditions are met. It allows you to detect up to 6 player inputs for building a controller. Before 2.2, we had to rely on quirky setups that were 3 times less efficient, but now we can achieve much more using only a few groups and little to no effort.

In the top right corner of the menu, there's a tablelist button that leads to another menu.
This menu lets you determine which action needs to occur in order for your Group ID to activate. Fortunately, while only the first six events have explanations attached to them, the rest are self explanatory so feel free to explore.
Now that we know how the Event Link Trigger works, we can make some contraptions
Here is an example of what you can make with this trigger. In this particular level, the player always moves forward at a certain speed. By pressing a corresponding key we either turn left or right. Upon pressing W or ^ we dash forward. This trigger is also used at a start to choose between different set of controls: A W D or < ^ >.
