Hello people,
I created a little system that make bugs walking with procedural-like animation for the legs. (a simple one : six points represents where the feets are touching the ground and each time the body, which is always in motion, moves away from these points by a certain distance, those points are teleported back at 6 imagepoints that are all around the body. And the legs are just stretching to connect the center of the body with these points)
And i added a simple pathfinding behavior to the body so he's following a cross that teleport randomly at the screen regularly.
Here is the main panel.
Here is the line applied for all the points
Here is the line applied for all the legs
So i added all of those elements in a container so i can make appear many animals in the same times and they all use their own legs and all is great.
(sorry for my bad english, by the way)
So at the start it was working great.
It look like this. (the point will be invisible at the end of course)
But there are a weird thing that occur : when the original container; the one i placed first touch the cross, all the point for all the others containers stop moving, so their legs continue to stretch for no reason until the cross teleport again.
The most weird thing is that this only occur when this beetle from the original container reaches his cross. when one of the other ones reaches their cross, nothing weird happend and all continue to work normally.
Do anyone know why this weird asymmetry is happenning ? And why those objects that are in a container suddently start caring about what appened to another one container ? I'm looking again and again on the code lines and i don't understand what could cause this.
I can upload the project if needed, but i dunno how to do it.
Thank u
