Constrain to X and Y only
#2
Hi

There is right now no way to constraint the position/rotation of the controller. This is a feature that can be useful, so I will try to implement it at some point in the future. Give me some days, and I will write you again about what to expect and when.
The constraints feature is now available in update 8.3.0

About the depreciation, Curvy Splines is not deprecated, it is actively maintained. It having the deprecated status is a work around Unity store's restrictions. Let me explain to you:

Curvy Splines exists for nearly a decade now. Unfortunately, on such a long time scale, it is becoming financially more and more difficult to maintain a good level of maintenance/development, and supporting the ever growing users base, based only on the income from the initial payment that can date from years ago. A better solution would be periodical subscription or paid updates: that means that you buy the asset, it is yours forever, but if you want all the latest updates, you will have to periodically pay for them. I think it is a sound solution. Let me know if you think otherwise.

The Unity asset store does not support subscription models or paid updates (at least not for the most assets publishers), so I had to use the best possible way to mimic such functionalities, and that way involved creating a new asset (wich I named Curvy Splines 8), and deprecating the existing one (which I named Curvy Splines 7). By using the "major upgrade" mechanism of the asset store, I was able to link both assets such as: recent owners of Curvy 7 could get Curvy 8 for free, and older ones could get it with a big discount. Thus the deprecated status of the Curvy you own.

I hope this made things clearer. Feel free to share you opinion about anything I said.
Have a nice day
Please consider leaving a review for Curvy. This will help a lot keeping Curvy relevant in the eyes of the Asset Store algorithm.
