how do to this, without coding each keys .. ?

in my game you can pick up some keys, which give you the possibility to destroy the assorted kind of wall.

i want more than 10 different WALLS/KEYS.

i could code for each object from KEY01 to KEY10

but i would like to know if its possible to code it in one time

------------

i have same problem, with some doors with a switch.

i know how to do it if i make code for each DOOR/switch , which are different objects.

but do the code one time for each couple of WALL/KEY or DOOR/switch working, i dont know how to do.

i hope you understand me.

thanks for help.

You can simply add a variable "ID" to both your keys and doors.

Then upon picking the key, you check its ID variable, loop through all the available doors, find the one with the same ID, and destroy it.

On collision with Key

---For Each Walls in UID

---if Wall.ID == Key.ID

------Destroy the wall, then stop the loop.

I don't know if there is a more efficient solution though.

i never use the UID stuff...

do you have a capx where i can see how its done ?

bump .   sorry to make this post go up, but i really hope for a good answer, it would help me for many others situations.

if im not clear, or if you need any precisions, please ask.
