  • hello everyone.. nice to meet you all

    I am a newbie here and still try the trial version of construct. I am usually using game maker.

    I am sorry if question is already posted here. I've already search and can't find the right answer for me.

    I build a simple maze and create a layout 1600x900 pixel.

    I have sprite call "walk" with 25x25 pixel.

    I create a randomize function to create path in the layout.

    Everytime my random get a position, I create object "walk" to mark that position.

    After that, I want to fill the empty position with sprite/object "wall". But how do I check if that position is empty or already have sprite/object "walk"?

    I create

    for "xx" from 0 to wwall > create object "wall" on layer 0 (xx,yy)

    for "yy" from 0 to hwall

    .......................

    but i don't know what to fill the "...." to create a condition if that position xx and yy is empty (no sprite/objct "walk") or already have sprite/object "walk" before create a "wall" sprite/object.

    Can anyone tell me how to do that?

  • Area generator? Sounds like 4 direction square checking empty space. Let's took your time to see this simple room generator:
