Just trying some things on Construct 2, and I was curious as to why global objects are recreated on a global layer, when going to a new layout. Does anyone know why that is? This may seem obvious to some, but I've got no clue.

I should be able to use arrays for what I'm trying to do, but I was just a little curious why this happens.

Objects on a global layer are created on every layout and global objects are transferred to the next layout. When changing the layout you have the object from the global layer and the object from the previous layout.

I see... Thanks! That clears a few things up.
