There is so far no reliable way to set player speed to values above 8. I would be able to write a workaround in AngelScript but I guarantee it's a better idea to wait for proper implementation.

I won't look into this, but I see no reason why the objects would ever need to contain sync. Sync is only necessary on object initialization when it needs to learn about its current angle, so there's no reason to store it, it just loads it from event parameters. And the angle is kept somewhere between var[] values. Speed, I don't know, sounds to me like a var[] thing but if it's not, it might be stored in xSpeed or ySpeed, or constantly get reloaded from the event if they didn't decide to optimize its code, you'll have to check on your own.

The animSpeed property, as far as I can tell, affects gem rings and some types of destructible scenery.

Doesn't work. The param part isn't considered a valid part of the expression, as I keep on getting "No matching signatures for [expression]". So I can't change the deco's color.

Good thing it doesn't work because that's not what the function prototype looks like. Use the documentation. Or use the help debug messages you get.

Not through a direct variable, but something like jjMaskedHLine(player.xPos-12,24,player.yPos+20) should work. You can also perform a check for ySpeed==0 just to be sure.

Use an ASCII table instead.

Because you didn't provide a sample of code you used, God knows what you did wrong but you did something wrong.
