Its a different family, I could set ID's, but how do I store/retrieve the ID?

As always thanks to anyone taking the time reading this and trying to help.

So I'm trying to figure out condition/action for the following:-

family has 100 objects so individual events seems overkill

condition

mouseclick on family.object1(could be object1-100)

action

create family.object1 (needs to create the same object that was clicked on)

tried a bunch of stuff from mouseover to nickname and keep getting action random family.object

thanks again for any help

Wow, great replies guys...anyway I can give you reputation or thank you?

Going to go with darklinki's solution I think as I aready assigned i'ds 1-75 to the monsters so all I have to do it assign the 'level' global variable to use as the top figure in the random spawn (feel kinda an idiot for not figuring that out myself) I can also assign 'levellower' global so the weaker monster are removed as the game continues.

Thank you all again, so nice to see such active and helpful forum members.

I have 75 monsters in my game that are randomly created in an area each level

I want to make it so that that level 1 picks from monster 1-2 to create, level 2 picks from monster 1-3 to create, level 3 picks from monster 1-4 to create, level 4 monsters 1-5 and so on through the first 75 levels.

I could create individual events for all this but that would be hundreds of events and seems a little overkill.

I tried playing around with rex's nickname plugin but I'm either getting just monster 1, or all 75 monsters, any help or ideas would be appreciated.

Having difficultly getting it to work,

tryed

each level monster.spawnturn add 1

condition monster.spawnturn >70 (assigned 1-75 for each monster in the monster family behavior 'spawnturn')

behaviour nickname assign nickname 'a' to monster

nickname create monster 'a' layer 2 spawnx spawny

but I'm getting all the 75 monster as spawn options, I could write an event for every monster but it seems a little overkill and I believe there must be an easier way.

As always any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you c4sp3r89 think this might be just what I was looking for.

You could do condition 'every tick' action 'move forward 5 pixel' would make it smooth

Hi,

So heres what i'm trying to do:-

For my game I want increasing difficulty monsters to spawn each lvl (the monsters have different graphics and stats)

I have a family with 70 'monsters' on lvl 1 of the game I want only monster 1 to spawn, lvl 2, 50%/50% chance for monster 1 and 2 to spawn

lvl 3 33%/33%/33% for monster 1-3 to spawn, lvl 4 25%/25%/25%/25% for monster 1-4 to spawn and onwards till lvl 10 where I want only monsters 2-10 to spawn, lvl 11 where monsters 3-11 would spawn and onwards through all 70 monsters.

I've tried a bunch of stuff to no avail and I feel I'm going in circles now so any help would be appreciated
