  Are there any pick nearest/touch examples at all?

  Thanks for the help - it's very useful. I've tried that but the sprites either don't snap or end up on top of each other at one place (snapped). I think I may need to specify a particular cell somehow.

  Hi

  I have a sprite for my board game and 9 positions that it can go on top of. I am using drag and drop but am struggling to drop the piece on one of the 9 defined cells rather than a gap in between. I would like the piece to be snapped to the nearest cell that it can go on when dropped - should I be using pick nearest in some way?

  Any help gratefully received!

  Thanks

  Matt

  Thanks, I'm just wondering at the moment whether to make my "spots" (where the counters land) to be instances or a family and how to reference them all within events - such as movement.

  Hi

  I used the duplicate sprite feature (holding ctrl to copy more) - are they instances or sprites?

  Thanks

  Hi

  I'm very new to Construct 2 (but not to programming) and am trying to write a simple board game which is a bit like Tic-Tac-Toe. I have created a background and 9 "spots" on the next layer which are individual cells. I was wondering how to create an event whereby if I click on one of the 9 cells, a counter appears upon that one only? So far if I click on a cell, a counter appears on all nine! I just can't work out how to write an event which references one particular sprite!

  Thanks

  Matthew
