Pick nearest only on X coordinates

Hello there,

I am using pick nearest for detecting surrounded objects, but I would need to detect/pick them only on X coordinates, inline on the platform. Does anyone have an idea how to disable picking by Y?

Thank you guys!

After picking, you can check if the X coord is a certain value, the x of the platform.

Something like this?

Example R218

there is also event..System pick by comparison

now you can add ad another condision...pick nearest..

now you can add ad another condision...pick nearest..

That would only work if the other coordinate is exactly the same, right?

Maybe a sprite is between y-values would solve that..

Without knowing what the exact aim of this check is though, I chose not to limit the comparison in any way..

I would recommend adding other conditions to my event, so the amount of sprite2 that are being compared are less and maybe the moment when it is done is not every tick..

That would only work if the other coordinate is exactly the same, right?

Yes.. LittleStain ..you're right..

but topic is named "Pick nearest only on X coordinates" so....

Thank you for your advices, I'll go through it and let you know!
