Destroying particles + Global events

Is there a way to destroy particles when they collide with a solid object?

I don't think so. You'd have to use sprites or fake it. What effect you wanna achieve?

I'm trying to make this waterfall stop when it collides with that platform.

You'll have to do your own particles with a sprite object to do that.

If there's only one instance of that platform, and only one instance of your particles, then you could just compare the x of the platform. Like platform x is less than n amount.

You could use the mask effect: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4322334/mask.cap

Thanks, that's a lot better than what I was doing (creating another backdrop and putting it in front of the waterfall).

Also thanks for the anwsers everyone!

I'll use this thread to ask another question so I won't flood the board.

I just began programming my game properly, and I'd like to know.. is there a way to make a global group or global event sheet?

If not, should I just create one event sheet for everything in the game? Or should I create different sheets and copy the basic code to all of them?

Thanks!

Just create a new event sheet, and then for each layout event sheet go "inlcude event sheet".
