Community Topics
Since v3.9 any user is able to submit his own topics to the community!
The example community file containning the topics URL is hosted here
The file is parsed asynchronously in the app and loaded.
You can create more topics and upload them to pastebin, then in the app you send me its URL.
Topic Creator
Since v3.11 anyone is able to create their own topics within the app! You can save it or share it with a friend if you want.

}Simple explanation:
- A topic is defined as an array of sets of questions. Ideally this sets are about the same topic...
- Each set of questions can have a different number of answers BUT all the answers in each set need to have the same number.
- Whithing a question, the answers can't repeat; as well as the correct answers.
- You can also use some images which will show below the specific questions. You must specify a URL of that image (I think the link must start with "https"). The image will load asychronously and it will be cached for later faster use too.
- Each question can have 1 or multiple correct answers. Use "correct" for a unique correct answer and "correctAnswers" for multiple ones. If you use both ("correct", "correctAnswers") it will add the "correct" index to the other array (is a set so it won't repeat).
- Each topic (JSON file) can have specific options that are optional to specify, see below for more details.
The rest can be deduced :)
Options. Possible keys and values.
| Key | Values | Note |
|---|---|---|

If no name is specified, its name will be the same as its file name. |
| timePerSetInSeconds | An unsigned integer or a Double |
If ommited, there will be no timer. |
| questionsInRandomOrder | Boolean (true/false) |
Random (true) by default. |
| helpButtonEnabled | Boolean (true/false) |
Could be overwritten by app settings and will be hidden if the number of answers is 2 or less. True by default. |
| showCorrectIncorrectAnswer | Boolean (true/false) |
True by default. |

False by default. If false, when a question has multiple answers only one is required to continue; true otherwise. |
