Ah yes, that explains it. They were defaulting to a different layer since the specified one wasn't found. (for those referencing this in the future.)

The layers are one thing that doesn't auto update on changes. I believe it has something to do with being able to make dynamic links to them, but I never knew for sure.

How about on click they all rapidly shrink until they are too small to see, rearrange themselves, and then grow back to the original size showing the new positions. (that would probably also be a lerp, in size.)

No, that shouldn't be possible, or I can't think of a reason off hand.

Can you recreate the effect in a capx we could take a look at?

Actually, I would try and have each check to see if the one behind it is in place, and if not, slow it's rotation until it sees one in place behind it.

They should all self adjust that way, as soon as one slowed, the one in front of it would too.

You could also arrange their z-order, and "For Each" by that order.

Yes, we see the medal on your portrait. You now have a status symbol even Ashley doesn't have. <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Not yet, they are developing a new arcade though that will allow bigger sizes. They showed a preview last month, but I don't see it ATM...

Edit: NM, here it is:

Be sure to Thumbs up all the good comments whenever a new update or blog comes out, and vote on games in the arcade.

I believe you need 500 to PM.

Uh, I think I understand...

You can use "count" to know how many instances of an object there are.

I would create a random number between 1 and the sprite.count, for the first number, the second would be a number from 1 to the sprite.count minus the first number, then split it again, or use the remainder as the last number.

This also uses the sprite count, and sets the behavior "destroy outside layout"

This one is probably going to require an example to show what you mean. There isn't time to try and discover the error, which could take all day. So the person who knows what to look for has to demonstrate it. Many times, even the original person isn't able to recreate it.
