Thanks dop2000, working exactly how I'd hoed it would. 'nth instance' was the missing key. Feel like you've pretty much single headedly created the main code for this game.

Thanks to both for your time, I really appreciate the fact that you even created a working example for me BigBuckBunny.

Apologies for my ignorance, but using BigBuckBunny's example, I can't seem to get both instances of the sock to be destroyed - it's only ever the target that get destroyed. How can I reference each sock instance?

Similarly, with your suggestion dop2000, that was my original avenue but again struggled to reference or detect the two specific instances:

Hi All,

I have the following game:

The objective is to drag and drop the matching pairs together and when they have been matched, they can be destroyed (I'll add further effects later).

The sock is a single Sprite with each frame being a different sock colour:

I've tried multiple times to get the sock instances to compare their animation frames but I'm unable to get this very simple concept to work.

After reading quite a few forum posts, the solution seems to point towards using Families. However, I'm not currently subscribed and can't commit at the moment to the cost. Is there a way to do this without families?

Such an elegant solution, thanks so much, works a treat!

Just needed to add a 'stop animation' action.

Hi Folks,

I'm working on a simple drag and drop game whereby the user matches pairs of socks on a washing line:

I'm using pre-placed spawners (orange circles) to then generate pairs of socks on start of layout. However, I'm really struggling to get it to execute properly without the socks overlapping each other (multiple socks spawning on the same location):

This is the current version of code that generates the above result:

[Spawn Socks]

----+ System: Every tick

--------+ System: Sock1Count < 7

------------+ System: Pick a random Spawner instance

-------------> Spawner: Spawn sock1 on layer 0 (image point 0, create hierarchy: False, template: "")

-------------> Spawner: Destroy

----+ System: Every tick

-----> (no actions)

----+ System: Sock2Count < 7

--------+ System: Pick a random Spawner instance

---------> Spawner: Spawn sock2 on layer 0 (image point 0, create hierarchy: False, template: "")

---------> Spawner: Destroy

Any help would be appreciated.
