  Do mean something like this?

  I added a sprite called "camera" and gave it the Scroll To and Bullet behaviours, then set it off travelling up the layout.

  Does this work for you?

  I've assumed the following:

  1. If all of the boxes marked onteam have >=1000 coins then all of those boxes should have their coins added to total_coins, and their indvidual boxes.coins value set to zero.

  2. If only some of the onteam boxes have coins >=1000 then none of the onteam boxes should have their coins transferred.

  3. Boxes that are not onteam should not have any of their coins transferred regardless of whether they are greater or less than 1000.

  Yes, you can do this with hierarchy. Add A as a child to B and disable "transform angle".

  Thought I'd already tried that - evidently not! Cheers :-)

  Hi,

  I was wondering if there's a way to pin object A to object B at an X,Y offset to B's origin and have the offset respected when object B rotates?

  e.g. a health bar pinned to a top-down enemy: the health bar is at 0,-32 relative to the enemy's origin; if the enemy rotates 90 degrees clockwise it should remain at 0,-32 not move to 32, 0.

  I've tried using the pin behaviour and hierarchies but in both instances A changes its position as B rotates.

  I'm currently repositioning A every tick, which works. I could add a blank sprite to the container and pin both the A and B to that, but was interested if there were any techniques using existing behaviours that didn't involve adding in an additional sprite.

  You can use the Advanced Random plugin to create a probability table.

  You can't add leaderboards currently - you can still post games to the arcade though.

  Here's an example project:

  Description in the comments.

  Here's a pair-matching example using dop2000's shuffle (cheers dop, nice trick :-)), including a method to compare the pair selections without needing to throw around multiple global variables:

  random(0,gNumberCards) will return a float number, not an integer. If you want to pick between 0 and gNumberCards inclusive, try using int(random(0,gNumberCards+1).

  Try using the timer behaviour on an object - or post a screenshot of your code/project file and we can check why the wait isn't working.

  Here's an updated file that should fix the issues you're having:

  dropbox.com/s/hpfy5kkyxa4vps9/Mapabox_MB.c3p

  In event 9 all txt_answerNew.number were being set to the same value.

  In 10/11 all instances of list_answer_input, txt_option and txt_answerNew were being acted on rather than those sharing the button number - you needed to pick the instances with the same number as the button.

  If you want to simplify your events, instead of picking instances using a shared number value I would consider adding these objects into a container together - that way, when you pick an instance the instances in its container are automatically picked.

  Here's an example that does what you're after:

  dropbox.com/s/8k7o0l6e2qwtun4/order.c3p

  There's probably a way to simplify calculating the ingredient permutations for filling the array - if I figure it out I'll update and let you know.
