There are two things:

collision groups. When two instances are in the same group they won't collide. It's just a number.

Collision layers. It's a series of 1's and 0's, one for each 32 layers. Two objects will only collide if they share a one in the same position.

It adds collision filtering, and a lot more joints as well as other improvements, as well as various differences.

have construct 3 vrrsion ?

Nope.

This is an awesome plug in. Thanks.

The hexadecimal digits each are four bits. So you can use them for four layers. See the key here, but you can find it elsewhere as hexidecimal to binary. In total you can have 32 layers or 8 hexadecimal digits. In the layout editor it's convenient to use hex to set the layers. In the event editor you can do it too, or you can take an existing mask and modify it with construct's bitset expression.

Thanks for reply. I've automated mine based on Z position variable, and right now I go trough loops checking that Z and Height and adding 0 or 1 to a string in between Z and a height. If I'd have 32 layers, how could I have it automated like that? Could I create a string with 32 digits or do I need to use letters instead?

As an example how would 23 or 30 look like?

Best!

R0J0hound Would you mind just giving me few examples of how those would look like in the plugin gui itself?

Would it be something like 0100A00B?

Thanks

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply.

Probably the simplest is to use a 32 character binary number of 1's and 0's. Each digit is a layer that you can make the object be in or not in.

For example:

1110 1010 1010 1111 1000 0100 1100 1011

Then to input it into the layers property you need to first convert it to hex using google, or windows calculator.

Here's one possible converter:

convertbinary.com/binary-to-hexadecimal

That binary number turns into this:

Hey

Thanks for reply. So, for simplicity I'd rather stick with binary, but does your plugin gui alows for 32 digits to be input, or I need to do it some other way?

In the layout editor it only takes hex numbers. In events you use decimal numbers but you can use the set bit expression.
