Hi,

How do we add methods in auto-complete in a JS event?

For example, we can't find getColor of a SpriteRuntimeObject.

Monaco editor is limited to RuntimeObject type?

Use a /** @type {xxx} */ to cast the object into the type you're using.
Note that in the future we could:

Support TypeScript somehow, in which case you would do it using const myObject = ... as xxx
Or pass the array objects with the proper type.
