  • When you create a new family you can add multiple object plugin types to it if you select and add them all at once. It generates errors, but if you ignore them, it seems to work. I assume that since if you add one object type to the family, all other object types are removed from the lhs, it is not intended for the families to support multiple types. But there is nothing done to prevent adding them all at once.

    To reproduce the problem, use the Unique ID (UID) example supplied with C2. Add a family to the project and select the three objects on the lhs and move them all at once to the family. Click OK and then Ignore all of the errors. On the event sheet change the references to Sprite to Family1 and run. It all works as before, except the UIDs are also displayed for the text objects. (Which demonstrates that this could be a cool feature at some later date.)

    Here are the errors I received when I clicked OK after adding the objects to the family.

  • Are the Plugin files decompressed? Just a guess

  • Try Construct 3

  • Thanks for the input. However, these are standard plugins that ship with C2 -- text and sprite.

    I think it is intended for this to not be allowed. There just isn't a check to prevent it at this point. It isn't anything urgent. I was just documenting a problem to be fixed at some time, either by allowing multiple object types or preventing multiple object types.

  • Thanks for the report, you're right it's intended that this is not allowed. I've added a check to prevent it for the next build, so it should be fixed then.
