    Hmm, I have no idea what you're talking about, so I think I may be misunderstanding what the ampersand command is actually used for. So to clarify, is there anyway that I can use an object's instance variable IN expressions?

    EDIT: I'm new to this, so the jargon escapes me. How about a picture?

    See, I want to use the instance variable's value (whatever it may be for the current object) there (or wherever).

  • Hey all, I'm making a metroidvadian here and I figured, in order to teleport to a specific layout, I would use a sprite with a text instance variable "location". On contact, I planned to make the sprite teleport the player to wherever the instance variable is set to go to (e.g. "location" is set to "cave", therefore it will teleport the player to the layout named "cave"). However, it appears that the ampersand operator cannot be used for instance variables.

    Is there some way I can use instance variables like so? If not, is there a workaround? Thanks!

    Yeah, I see what you mean my friend. Though, introducing yourself is far more awesome when you get a nice greeting from one of the site's regulars!

    Regardless, I may as well introduce myself correctly now. I'm allowiscous, and while I don't have any experience in proper game development, I have been modifying SNES ROMS for 6 or so years. Because of that, I like to believe that I have a pretty decent handle on game, level, graphic, and music design.

    Construct 2 seemed like a powerful and intuitive editor, plus it (seems) to have an active and helpful community. I can't wait to get started.

  • You know, I want to legitimately introduce myself here, but it seems like the only people that actually frequent this thread are the new users who are also introducing themselves! Where are all the friendly greeters who lube up the scary entrance to a new community?!
