Laser picking problem

Hi

here is the capx (r122) Laser Problem

As it stands it works as i want. Move the door up and down with the arrow keys and spawn a block with the left mouse button.

What i can figure out is how i can clone the Laser and Laser switch and have it operate the same way as the first.

I need multiple lasers on one level.

I know its a picking problem but i cant see where i do the picking.

Alternative solutions welcome <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle">

Thanks for your time.

What exactly is the desired result? Do you want the lasers to shoot straight, endlessly, until they run into an obstacle, or do you want a 1 to 1 relationship , where each laser aims for a specific switch?

This might work for you: Lazor beams example

Cleaned things up a bit, you don't need 'run every dt' conditions for anything really. Things run every tick by default unless you define otherwise :)

Hi, i want multiple lasers to act as the one in the example. In other words each laser hits its own switch, and is interrupted by a door or block.

Excellent ! thanks a lot for taking your time to help <img src="smileys/smiley20.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

All you need is to give the laserbeams and switches matching id variables and then have 'for each laserbeam', pick matching laserswitch, do your thing. I ended up making a few other changes though.

Nice example too, thanks.

Just makes me realise how inadequate my skills are <img src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0" align="middle" />
