  That solves it! Thank you very much! It was just like what kriand showed! Sorry for the confusion I didn't know how to explain it very well.

  I can't figure out how to access both instances and imagepoints to then make a line that connects both.I'm trying to connect two raycast lines (variable size) on the "point" imagepoints to cast sort of a cone shape. It has to be instance specific so that multiple objects can cast that cone as well.

  In this example I have 4 raycasts coming from an emitter with a specific range. The distance between the points varies when they collide with solids.

  I tried creating variables to identify each instance and tried following Yann's example from this link: construct.net/forum/construct-2/how-do-i-18/check-distance-between-2-insta-43358

  But still couldn't figure out how to do this

  I know this is complex but if anyone could help me it would be hugely appreciated.

  Here is my capx: dropbox.com/s/aw7susogmra8duq/distance2imagepoints.capx

  Drag and drop the black box to move the raycasts.

  RE:1. There are some simple ways to do it, you can check out this LINK, from the How do I FAQ and see if the sollution works for you.

  RE:2. From what I know, Construct preloads only the current layout's placed objects when the layout starts, so this should only affect the game file size.

  RE:3. Yes, you can definitely do that.

  I've been having this issue as well, is there any sollution? Changing my graphics card doesn't seem reasonable. I have a Nvidia GTX 970 with updated drivers.

  Thank you so much ! It works !!

  Just one more thing.. If i wanted to pick the top one ( from the z ordering ) how should I do it ? The "pick nth instance" seems to pick the one that was first created

  For example: there are 2 overlapping objects of the same type, when I use the "on object clicked" function and set it to destroy the object, both of them are destroyed.

  Is there a condition that guarantees that only one will be destroyed ? ( I tried using the "for each" but it didn't work.. )

  I wanted them to be basically the same (same appearance, animations etc), the criminals would do just little things that the people wouldn't. So I thought it would save code and resources if I just did it like this

  Hello, thank you for reading!

  What I wanted to do is spawn 10 people at random times, but 3 of them should be criminals.

  For that, I created a sprite called "People" and gave it a boolean called "Criminal" and on spawn it's decided (randomly) if it's a criminal or not.

  The spawns are limited by a global variable (invites) that is set by the difficulty and with each spawn it decreases by 1 until it reaches 0 ( so it doesnt spawn anything )

  The problem is: I've tried many things but sometimes the criminal count is wrong, sometimes it spawns more people than it should, it never gets what I want.. Can you help me?

  ( I know the code is messy, sorry about that )

  Now that you said it, it doesn't seem so complicated. I think the existence of a plugin blocked my mind, thanks!

  I really need that plugin, does anybody have an alternate link?

  I will be eternally grateful! ( for construct classic, the link on the post seems broken to me )

  My objective is to make something like:

  If your character is not on the same floor, the bullet shouldn't hit the enemy and you can jump up and down between floors freely.

  Here is a game that uses this mechanic: cross-code.com/en/play

  Do you guys know an effective way to do that ?

  Thank you for reading!
