Place 100+ Sprites with plugin?

I would like to place 100+ sprites at certain locations with a comma delimited text string. It will be the same sprite and not different sprites.

The format would be: x1,y1,x2,y2,x3,y3,x4,y4,...

Does this already exist? If it doesn't, would it be a behavior or plugin?

I'd say it would be a "Create object" loop getting coordinates out of an array.

I thought of that to, but how do i fill the array?

CSV plugin plus some events

You could use the while loop and spawn sprites until you run out of tokens in the string. See tokenat and tokencount system expressions.

Thank you for the VERY quick replies. I think you all pointed me in the right direction.

Well after playing around for about a hour i still don't know how to use the CSV plugin. I created a CSV file with Excel and then copied the contents to "load table" forom the CSV plugin. I then tried to access the table by using CSV.At(0,0) which did not work. I then tried CSV.At(str(0),str(0)) which only returned 0 and not the value of 50 that was loaded there. I just don't understand, is there example CAPX to look at. I already looked at the text_csv capx examples which don't show what i'm looking for.

I have it working now, I was not using Col and Row Headers which is how you index to a value.

Shouldn't this thread be in the "How do I" session?
