so they would both be set at the same time?

I don't quite understand

does the create event execute before the variables set after spawning the object?

or does it work in line order?

for example witch var would be set first in a code like this?

on X pressed
spawn projectile at layer 1 point 0
projectile set instance var1 to 1

on projectile created
projectile set instance var2 to 1

is there a way to make a action reference another object via nickname

like..

on create of object family
{
    if object is Asteroid Large
    {
         Nickname = Asteroid Large
         Sub Nickname = Asteroid Medium
    }
    if object is Asteroid Medium
    {
         Nickname = Asteroid Medium
         Sub Nickname = Asteroid Small
    }
    if object is Asteroid Small
    {
         Nickname = Asteroid Small
         Sub Nickname = Asteroid Null
    }
}

and then on collision
if Asteroid Family Collides with bullet
{
     Repeat 2 times With Nickname
     {
             Create SubNickName
             SubNickName.Angle = NickName.Angle
             Nickname.Angle = Nickname.angle - 90
     }
     Then
     {
         With NickName Destroy
     }
}

Edit: also sorry for the bump
Edit2: ingore this post I realised I just need to ask how to use an array

how do I make form control objects have certain sprite of font?

like they don't list a way to use custom sprites and fonts

and I googled it people are telling the askers to use CSS

but isn't that just making it harder then it has to be?

since it requires understanding how CSS works

where do I download it?

on his site there is only links to capx files

Edit: wait I need to have in based on a number variable so I can increment it by 1 depending on the asteroid type

Ashley is this even possible to maybe implement or do I have to just use a ton of code for each asteroid?

can someone reply to this by tomorrow as I need at least question 2 to be answered to continue my game

I admire your quick reply

but I just realized that and fixed it to

but thankyou

can someone take a look at my project real quick

My missiles explosions aren't spawning at all

they aren't deleting themselfs as I when into debug mode

and I checked step by step intill the explosions would have happened

but they just don't spawn

I have tried moving the events around but it doesn't seem to work

here is my capx

Edited:

to make this more pleasing I've combined two of my questions in one topic

EditedAgain:

to change number 2 question

EditedAGAIN2:

to change number 2 question

1.

is it possible to do a else if or if inside one block?

I tried to do it and it toggles a or between the else if

making it not work

2.

is it possible to spawn a certain object in a family by either a objectID or a custom family var?

last time I used the function plugin it crashed I can try doing it again though

hmm weird you example doesn't seem to work with the touch but

I think I see where your going I will try to use this to implement into my game

can you save it to a single file?

so I can take a look?
