Since commit 1185f09 with import kara instead of import coati you are able to use the original kara commands. Beta features are still only availible for the coati module. Note that only the function-names change, not the design. Since commit 1870619 it is also possible to select the kara-theme in the theme settings found in the burger menu.
The following is written for the execution UI implemented in 2dad194.
Here you see the button in the UI and what it does.
| Button | Function |
|---|---|
 |
Execute the code |
 |
Stop the code execution at the current position. |
 |
Skip the code execution to the end. (Notice #15) |
With the speed-slider you can change the interval the states being applied in.
If you set it to immediately, All the states are being applied nearly at the same time. If you set it to 3, you'll need to wait 3 seconde after every move. I recommend to set it to 2.5.
