Mimick Unreal Engine 4 Construction Script in PlayCanvas

Help & Support
1

Hi everyone. I’m a Unreal Engine developer trying to create an app here and i miss some features i have there called Construction Script (Intro to Blueprints: Construction Script Customization | 08 | v4.8 Tutorial Series | Unreal Engine - YouTube) which helps me to script some logic to customize some tools in editor only environment. I would like to know if there is a similar way to make these kinds of script here to change values from a script attributes without needing to play the game using the update function

Thank you in advance!
