  Also, like stated above you are setting the width to 0*Spawn1.sizefactor

  By the way, Spawn 2 will probably not be set to the right size, because you are not referencing Spawn1 in the event, so the program has no idea which instance of spawn1 you mean..

  grigrizljac I changed it to 100 and it still don't do anything...

  You don't have something stupid like a destroy outside layout behaviour attached, do you?

  And without bound to layout even better..

  As you can see I use use the clamp() expression to limit the x and the y position of the object..

  Well, you have this event:

  Enemy worm head is outside of layout

  set worm advise x - to enemy head x

  set worm advise y - to enemy head y

  So they are at the same spot..

  I always thought two things in the same spot have a distance of 0

  So the text is completely right..

  This should work a lot better

  Maybe you could explain in a better way what you would like, for I don't understand the question..

  Would it be possible to share a capx, maybe?

  Or you might consider drawing an example..

  I guess I would do it something like this:

  Give the Sprite a variable Direction

  System pick sprite by comparison Abs(sprite.x-player.x) > 100

  -- Sprite.x < player.x

  Sprite set direction : "Right"

  -- Else

  Sprite set direction : "Left"

  Sprite compare variable direction = "Left"

  Sprite simulate platform pressing left

  Sprite compare variable direction = "Right"

  Sprite simulate platform pressing right

  If you are you creating the new sprite based on the position of the other, there shouldn't be any problem..

  If you can explain what you would like to do different than any of the many examples in the threads in the search, it would maybe be easier to answer your question..

  There are so many different examples of randomly and/or proceduraly generated maps and ways to do it, what would you like to be different?

  sprite is overlapping sprite

  sprite destroy

  system create sprite at : x=random() y=random()

  the basic conditions would be something like:

  pick random instance of box

  trigger once

  The big question is what would having an item actually consist of..

  You could do it like this:

  Give the sprite an instance variable SizeFacto

  sprite on created

  sprite set SizeFactor : choose(4,5,6,7,8)

  sprite set width : 50*sprite.SizeFactor

  sprite set height: 50*sprite.SizeFactor

  that way the size will be 200,250,300,350 or 400px

  What movement behaviour do they have?

  Or..

  Do you mean you don't want them to overlap when created?

  If that's your question, there are multiple solutions to be found on the forum..
