Non-overlapping random spawn

Hi there,

There's an area with multiple image points. How can I make it spawn new sprites at random image points over time so that these sprites do not overlap each other (i.e., appear at the same point)?

Thx in advance.

Using this post, and because I need something similar but I cant find the right logic:

How do I make a random spawn of 4 numbers in 4 different but fixed positions without repeating themselves?

In other way I want them to spawn in a,b,c and d positions randomly but never overlapping.

I found a rudimentary way to do it with a "set position" x=CHOOSE(128,384,640,896) and every time they overlap its forced to choose another place to be. This repeats 4 times for each number. It works but it seems very badly done. It brings me further problems when I want 10 numbers in 10 random fixed positions... its huge!

I have this feeling that this is done with an array, but I don't know how to use it here.

You want to create 1 object per position or just don't want to repeat the last position?

Anyway I try to make a cap, maybe it's not the best method but I use array to achieve this.

How do I open your .cap file?

My Construct2 does not accept it...

Pmmm, You need to install construct classic to look at the cap. You are in the construct classic section which is different than the construct 2 section.
