  • Problem Description

    ____ It seems to me that I can't pick instances of a given object that has the Turret behavior and add targets to it and only to the picked one (reason of posting: I would like to make a space shooter game that has point defense turrets that target rockets and enemy ships while having turrets that are not point defense that target only enemy ships, not rockets). ____

    Attach a Capx

    ____ h*t*t*p*s://w*w*w.dropbox.com/s/ndizkf50zibs8nx/Turret_pick_bug.capx?dl=0 (Is this the way I attach the file? If not, sorry for my incompetence, this is my first bug report) ____

    Description of Capx

    ____ First turret (I've given it "variable 1") should target green, second turret should target red and third turret should target nothing. At least in my opinion. But all turrets target both targets. You can drag the targets closer to the turrets to see it. ____

    Steps to Reproduce Bug

    • Step 1: Create a Sprite and give it the turret behavior.
    • Step 2: Make 3 instances of it by copying them.
    • Step 3: Give them different instance variables to be able to pick only one of them. I created texts besides them for reference.
    • Step 4: Create 2 different targets, for example a green and a red one.
    • Step 5: In the event sheet pick one of the turrets (Turret.variable=1) and add the green target to it.
    • Step 6: In the event sheet pick an other turret (Turret.variable=2) and add the red target to it.
    • Step 7: Run layout. Drag targets closer and farther to see result.

    Observed Result

    ____ All instances of a given object with the turret behavior target both rectangle targets. ____

    Expected Result

    ____ First turret (I've given it "variable 1") should target green rectangle, second turret should target red rectangle and third turret should target nothing (since the events didn't even pick it). ____

    Affected Browsers

    • Chrome: (I don't have Chrome installed)
    • FireFox: (YES)
    • Internet Explorer: (YES)

    Operating System and Service Pack

    ____ Windows 7 Ultimate, Service Pack 1 (activated, legal one) ____

    Construct 2 Version ID

    ____ Release 200 (32-bit), Personal license ____

    And of course I'm sorry if it's not an actual bug but I would like to get help either way.

  • PhoenixNightly - Thank you! Still a relevant answer to noobs such as my.self

  • Greetings Constructors!

    Just a few words about me:

    I'm a 28 year old fellow from Hungary. I'm a graduate college student, I work in a cafe specializing in premium chocolates, hot chocolates. I'm a big fan of sci-fi PC games, strategy board games and tabletop roleplaying games. I was a user of Multimedia Fusion 2 for quite a few years. Emphasis on "was".

    I just bought Construct 2 personal license after experimenting with it for several weeks (or months? time flies with this programme) :) and I have to admit: I immediately fell in love with Construct 2. I was getting tired of the probably well-known issues of MMF2. Christmas is here so my family's present will be Construct 2 for me :) The code will be waiting under the Tree.

    What to expect from me: on one of Clickteam's forums someone named it Big Game Fever. I have it and have no excuse. Starting big games to never finish them because of lack of knowledge or limitations of the creator app. I'm trying to cure this disease with moderate success. Hope Construct 2 will be the antidote.

    Thank you Scirra for making the virtual world a better place. :)

    Looking forward working with you guys and girls:
