  If the objects are in index order then just go sprite(self.iid-1).angle.

  Which works for all, but the first indice.

  You want to use blend modes.

  Check over in preferences, next to Effects.

  It's like they are punishing you for not using code.

  Then response for that is that even in coding you would make flowcharts.

  Yeah, I make flowcharts for mouse inputs all the time.

  A few options are to revert the drivers, or perhaps swap out the card.

  Probably graphics drivers.

  Have you tried to update that?

  It's apples and oranges. C2 has no lighting system, and all logic is made by the user, run on the cpu, in events.

  It does have a limited shadow caster, but all official plugs are made to run on both webgl, and canvas, thus the limitation.

  Im sure an fx implementation of lighting is doable, and so is 3d, via third party support.

  Logic wise there are no limitations, however the proper use of events may take some getting used to.

  You might make up some mechanic, and have it working, but at a high cpu cost.

  Optimization does tend to be an issue for some users, however the forum is quite good at finding solutions.

  If you expect to do everything with just physics, this may not be the perfect engine for you.

  The physics engine C2 uses is quite capable, but it is bound to the hardware capabilities, so your answer to all that is maybe.

  Then again I'm not sure you know this is a 2d engine.

  Rex has a google maps implementation that would work for this.

  I checked a while back with it, gps, and mode 7 it's doable.

  It would be pretty complicated to do a whole game.

  I would suggest some sort of helper app like a pokey stoplist or the like.

  Natano

  Why have you reported Newt for a Warez violation twice?

  Please stop doing this.

  Wat?

  You don't need to do it every tick.

  Add a button.

  Load the url into a sprite, set its angle, and paste it into the Paster object.

  It's the object count versus what the objects are doing.

  You can have a lot of objects on the screen if they aren't doing anything, however 3000 is a lot, even if they are static.
