  Download/install the free beta version from ...

  https://www.scirra.com/construct2/releases/r242

  You will need the beta a lot on the forums, most use the beta.

  But, i never used the steam version, i assume it is not overwriting the Steam version.

  If your steam version is still a free version, is say (boldly where no one has gone before) uninstall it, and get the free version from the source (this site). Steam is a nag (my opinion).

  I would use this plugin.

  It has a lot needed for roguelike set ups.

  And the path finding is fast enough to be used every second.

  You can also modify the paths easy to take corners.

  Here is a simple, basic, example that i made around the plugin.

  Instead of doing it urself? Ya mean literally? Cant believe i fall 4 that.

  Anywayz, as i said already: all you need is a system that selects things.

  You should have made one that YOU like&love to play with, and shared it.

  But since you are literally. Here goes 1 way of 1 billion.

  I cant test this myself, i dont own a 90tys game pad. At least change the button to something you can remember/use.

  Is there a way to do this without drag and drop? Like with cursor for control?

  Yes of course. In fact, all the drag&drop does (and matters) in the example is selecting inv spots and objects.

  Any other way you pick them is fine.

  A thing about IID.

  IID is an index, the index of an object in a LIST of selected objects.

  The IID of an object depends on how you select (pick) the objects and on how many objects you selected (picked).

  Say .. this case:

  On drop (sprite) .. selects 1 sprite ... and that 1 sprite has IID = 0 (it is the first sprite in the list containing the selected items)

  Or .... that case ..

  On screen (sprite) ... selects all sprites that are on the screen. Their IID is the index one has in that list of selected sprites.

  Or ..

  Pick all (sprites)

  ... you guessed ....

  I gamble that you have a problem with families spawning (building) a random member. In the first place.

  But that is easily to overcome. And without plugins. So, i (am still so free to) guess that you want to do something like this.

  Families is the way to go.

  InyTinny more a system. Can just delete the array, and it still works. But at 1 point you need the array to easily store inventory in local storage and recreate inventory from local storage. And then this is the way to go. Every instance variable on 1 place in the array.

  Do you see the basic mechanic ?

  To be read as ....

  "

  ... calculate relative difference between current touch and previous touch ...

  add relative difference to object that you wanna move ...

  ... make current touch the previous touch ...

  "

  You going to need this a lot in a lot of situations. That translate 'absolute to relative'.

  Share a .Capx with ....

  The graphics for the items and there instance variables filled with values.

  The graphics & grid for the inventory.

  I suppose that is gonna be 2 layouts ? 1 with the play field and 1 with the inventory system ? Or how do you planned to get items from the play field to the inventory ?

  In short, lets split the work, and i will help you. With pleasure.
