  • Yes, thank you LittleStain!

    I think I was getting the two confused especially as maybe there is glitch in the example so its not showing the instance variable "number" in the editor.

    Thanks for helping me out!

  • by clicking add/edit instance variable under instance variables in the object's properties-bar..

    Yes that is the only option I can find, however that is not how it is done in the example.

    In the example, the blob "number" value, auto increments every time you copy and paste an instance to the layout. So it seems to be an auto-generated instance variable. It only appears in the Properties but not in the Instance variables editor window.

    I thought it may have something to do with Families but adding my sprite to a family didn't seem to make any difference.

  • I'm trying to chain instances of a sprite together similar to the way they're chained in the Example: Pin chain style

    In the example, each instance of Blob has a number. However when I try to do this with my own layout, copies of my sprite don't have anyway to set the instance number under Instance Variables.

    So I'm wondering, how do I enable the instance number option for a sprite?

    Thanks!

  • If you haven't created any global variables then there is no folder entry in the Project tab to right click on.

    To create your first global variable you need to select the Event sheet.

    Right click on the event sheet and select "add global variable".
