  Beautiful, that is a tight efficient solution. Thanks again mate! :D

  If you struggle with something graphical, then PM me and I will offer my service.

  Have a great day. :)

  You could try this:

  Add a variable n, where n is equal to the max distance in the x or y direction that you want to change; in your example it would be 2.

  >For "i" from -n to n

  >For "j" from -n to n

  ->If loopindex("i") + loopindex("j") <= n, Set value at Xspawn+loopindex("i"),Yspawn+loopindex("j") to 1

  >Set value at (Xspawn,Yspawn) to 16

  That worked out really nice mate. Thank you!

  It works alright but it is tedious, and I would like to have has better control over the selection so I could adjust the selection during a fx. 'For Each" runtime. Would make a 'drunken man' map generation much more interesting I believe.

  Hey Constructors.

  I want to make a selection in my array over serval coherent numbers. I need to make a circular selection, so I plotted in this tedious selection of numbers.

  

  ..There Must be a smarter way around this, right? A selection mode or math equation?

  Thanks! :)

  Hi guys, let me know what you think of my little demo level. I would like some feedback on everything if you don't mind. Thanks!

  (Bomberman is Not my creation, but the of the game rest is.)

  I got it working. Seems I made it more complicated as needed. Thanks!

  I did exactly what you did before reading your comment, but still not working. I can not get my head around it. Could it be because of the Repeat/Loopindex?

  Hmm, I am not sure of anything anymore. I just can't get it to work.

  Tried serval ideas. Made a FSM for the particle smoke and triggered by distance traveled of the Missile.

  Then I gave the particle the UID of the projectile and tried to destroy it with its Missile counterpart. It did not work either.

  How would you guys go around this setup?

  I did try containers, but that will delete all the elements in the container and not only the smoke.

  I was not so lucky with the UID either, but I will give it a try again. Thanks

  Hi guys,

  I have this missile that has a particle smoke trail attached to itself on creation.

  The problem is when I want it to disappear, it will trigger newer created particles to disappear as well.

  I would love to get some feedback on why it is happening. Link to file below - Thanks :)

  I have tried that - I am doing following:

  "Have a variable called 'SinWave'

  On Every Tick - Set SinWave to Sin(2)"

  Still comes up with a static number.
