  • Urgh, so I am a new user and cant post URLS yet so hopefully this is clear enough.

    I am using 'Create Object' to spawn 2 objects, a Parachute & an Item attached to the Parachute with Pin.

    When I click on the Parachute it gets destroyed and drops the item to the ground.

    This all works perfectly.

    BUT

    I have it so that every 3 seconds a new Parachute/Item object set gets created.

    when I have multiple of these on screen at once, and I click on one of them ALL of them drop the item & get destroyed.

    Is there a correct way I should be doing this so they all act independently of each other, whilst still using the On Click action?

  • You need to keep track of the UID that you are pairing the item/parachute to. Add an instance variable to the parachute, set it to the UID of the item, then on-click, do a Pick by UID for the item so the correct one is selected.

  • You can check if each object "Is pinned" and if it's not, drop it to the ground.

    edit: you can post the URL, just leave out the colon or the slashes for us to fill in.

  • You are not using the good condition :

    It's not on click, it's on object clicked you should be using.

    Something like this :

    Mouse => on object clicked => parachute => parachute destroy

    Only the clicked parachute will be destroy.

    if you use :

    Mouse => on click => parachute destroy

    it will of course destroy all parachutes

  • Thanks for the replies, will check out the UID stuff sounds like the way to go!

    I am using on click - parachute, but it doesn't identify them as unique currently.
