ok i see.

as mentioned add a family instance variable to each family

- the instance variable for CHAIR='chair', HOUSE='house', ...

- the instance variable for BLUE=1, BIG=2, ...

To reduce the code you can do the following:

Create a new sprite containing all corresponding sprites (combinations) you want to show - grouped (separate animation) by NOUN and frameindexed by ADJ.

Name the animations by this NOUNs (CHAIR, ...) [with the first animation frame is the BLUE CHAIR, the second the BIG CHAR, ...]

The ADJ instance variables have to correspone with the frameindex of each animation.

Once the resulting combination is fix (all falling sprites are known), you know the instance variables of NOUN and ADJ (e.g. 'CHAIR', 1 (for blue))

Then you create the representing sprite and set it's animation [NOUN-instancevariable = 'CHAIR'] and it's frame is [ADJ-instance variable = 1].

I hope you understand the way it works...

Thank you!

kiko2015 it hard to understand how your game works at all (or how it should).

As far i understand, you want to determin which random sprite combination was created?

You can set a family instance variable (e.g. 'type') and countnumber each object of the family (1=chair, 2=table, 3=book, ...) and check this variable/constant.

Better post your project (capx) to understand your question....

Okay, I got this SPRITE FAMILY and randomly SYSTEM CREATES sprites from a certain family.

What I am to achieve is this?

FAMILY 1 > CHAIR, TABLE, BOOK

FAMILY 2> BLUE, BIG, NICE

Basically SYSTEM RANDOMLY CREATES A COMBINATION FROM BOTH FAMILIES EG.:

BLUE CHAIR

WHEN BLUE CHAIR IS CREATED IT FALLS DOWN ACROSS SCREEN TILL IT COLLIDES WITH A SOLID THEN I SET MAX SPEED TO ZERO AND THE WORDS STAY THERE.

I would like to display a sprite (I already have it) that corresponds to BLUE CHAIR, FOR EXAMPLE.

So, SYSTEM CREATES BIG CHAIR I want to display BIG CHAIR. I can't seem to find a way to do that. Tried OVERLAPPING AN INVISIBLE SOLID, COLLIDING WITH A VISIBLE SOLID. I am bummed out.

HELP!

Is the "Create Object" Action in a "Every Tick" event or a subvent?

If not, try using the "Triger Once" event as a condition of your original event

TRIGGER ONCE worked just fine. Thank you, Fenix18.

Hi,

For example:

SYSTEM CREATE OBJECT ON LAYER BLAH BLAH BLAH... It won't stop creating objects in an eternal loop.

I need SYSTEM TO CREATE JUST ONE INSTANCE OF A SPRITE IN A FAMILY INSTEAD OF INFINITE SPRITES.

How can I do that?

Thank you!

You have used a for or while loop?

You need to use the game cycle and a state maschine.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

You can set the volume (set volume) depending of a tagged sound depending on your needs (e.g in a loop - depends on your layout switch).

The value is db (e.g. -10 is half the original volume, see documentation)

Thank you but that does not fade out volume, it abruptedly turns it down. But thanks anyhow.

I am playing this tune on INTRO screen and would like to OnTouchedObject to transition into new Layout but smoothly fading sound out.

Help, please!

Nope.

If you want framerate independant, don't use dt, don't use behaviors.

tHANKyou!

SYSTEM > EVERY TICK > SYSTEM SET TIME SCALE TO 60*DT

I just wanted the whole game to be frame rate independable instead of using this for every moving object.

Thanks.
