  Is there any way of limiting the movement with this behaviour to only horizontal and vertical.

  How do you get an object to move to a position using waypoints.

  Just the first level of a game I am working on.Turn all the lights off on the grid to complete level.Left clicking on a grid position toggles the light it also toggles the state of the lights to the top,left,right and down.

  My project has suddenly started playing up.In the layout editor it will no longer allow me to add anymore objects.If I try to add an object I can click on say sprite the crosshair appears as normal but when I click to position it in the layout nothing happens.Any ideas?

  Thanks for the quick reply .In my game I have a sprite which is not in the family.This sprite can cover 4 of the 9 family objects.I check if the non family sprite is overlapping the family sprites.I then want to set a variable called "selected" for each of the covered sprites to 1 so that I can perform actions on only the covered sprites.I hope I have explained clearly enough.

  If I have several different objects grouped together as a family,is it the case I only have to give say a private variable to one of the objects within that family and the rest of the family group also have that variable?

  If you have several objects in a scene how can you find out how many of one particular object there is at runtime?

  It seems that you can't highlight an event in the events list and change its position in the list by dragging and dropping to a new position either up or down.For example if I make some events for moving an object and then decide I need a start of frame event this will obviously be created below the other events.How can I move the start of frame event to the top of the list.

  Is there anyway of limiting the mouse to the current active window window?Also I want the object that is controlled by the mouse to start in the middle of the window but when I start the app it obviously jumps to the mouse position.Can anyone help with this?

  I'm attempting to put a grid of sprites(9x9) down using a nested loop.I want the first spite to be at position x=12 y=12.

  ie create sprite sprite (loop index(loopx)*64)+12,(loop index(loopy)*64)+12

  this at the moment positions the first sprite at x=76 y=76

  Hi.Just discovered this programme and am quite impressed.Very similar to Multimedia Fusion but better laid out.My question is can you start a loop from 0 rather than 1.
