[Plugin]Board, Layout2Board [Behavior] Grid Move

randomly

Like faulknermano said, put tiles before putting chess. Valid cells are defined by 'tile' (z=0), i.e. user should put a tile (z=0) at a LXY position.

Hi Rex,

actually my grid cells, that have a tile (i.e. a sprite with z=0) in each, work like a charm. As the grid is 20x15, 300 sprites are needed. Is there some other way (without using so many sprites) I could obtain the same result (I could draw my grid via a tiled background, for ex.) ? Thx!

See document, section: "String symbol chess".

Thank you, I completely missed it...

Hi,

I'm having a technical issue using grid move: I have 2 chess moving simultaneously back and forth, but they quickly go out of sync

Each tile on the board is 30x30px

the speed for object "Blump" is 30 and object "Kepper" is 90

Here's my code that makes them go back and forth:

Theoretically Kepper should go back and forth 3 times for every 1 time for the Blump, but after a few times of bouncing around they don't reach their destinations at the exact same time, Kepper tends to arrive a bit late and those few pixels matter a lot in the context of the game.

Thank you for the help!

Please providing a very simple capx for your issue, thanks.

Hopefully this will do, thanks for the reply!

Since your goal is to make a wander AI. You might try to add (official) solid behavior to the trees, then using wander action in grid_move behavior in characters.

rexrainbow thanks for the reply!

Unfortunately the wander action doesn't have functionalities that I need; in the example I sent the AI have a very simple pattern that looks like wandering but in other levels the AI patterns are much more custom and specific, I'm not sure how I can use wander to create the level of precision that I need to create these specific patterns (none of the movement is randomized).

I'd be very grateful to hear another one of your suggestions, thank you for the help!

I saw that bug after running 30 times (or more), it is very hard to reproduce this bug.

You might try to add moving command under "Condition:On reach target position" to prevent checking position each tick.
