Can't find the "On variable change" Cutscene option?

Hello~ Does anyone know if this is due to an update or maybe a bug?
According to the manual, a tutorial I found, and some forum posts, I should have a third option here to create a cutscene that triggers with a variable change, but I have nothing of the sort, just "On start" and "On load".

I can think of ways to bypass this by just using Actionlists to a similar effect (If I have an action that changes a variable, add a check variable action afterwards and then an action to trigger the cutscene) but it's odd to me that I couldn't find it where the tutorials said.

It has since been deprecated - where have you seen it referenced in the Manual / tutorials? I'll update them if they still have references to it.

The amended workflow is to use the Events Editor (or Event Runner component, if you only need it in a given scene), and define a Variable: Change event. This will fire a Global/Local/Component variable changes value - either any, or one you specify.

You can then assign an ActionList that will run when this event is fired.

Oh, I see, thanks! I thought I was doing something wrong.
it's on this tutorial https://adventurecreator.org/tutorials/my-first-cutscene and on 5.5 "Cutscenes" in the Manual

Thanks - I'll amend these to remove such references.
