Make OR Conditional?

When my ball hits either looseStick OR looseStick2 the same message appears, I can do this by copy/pasting the same function. It would be better and cleaner if I could simply make an OR conditional for looseStick2.

For example I can't find a way to say:

ball (On collision WITH (looseStick) OR (looseStick2)) { DO STUFF }

Does this Plug-In help you?

OR-Plug-In

There is a third party plugin located at: scirra.com/forum/plugin-or_topic47046_post294591.html

This will give you your OR statement

My way would be without a Plugin

ball On collision WITH (looseStick) set variableA to x

ball On collision WITH (looseStick2) set variableA to x

variableA = x { DO STUFF }

vidi, that's not a bad idea, since I might make more than two looseSticks later on. OR only works for two objects. Thanks Weishaupt and smitchell I will try the OR plugin as well.

vivi I have a problem with your example, if the ball collides again LooseVar won't work, or won't do anything. Is there a way to wait (allow the ball to bounce) and reset the LooseVar?

if loseVar=0 do another stuff .eg. make it visible again and maybe set x and y to another location ...

I understand now, Thanks!

For some reason the animation for looseVar won't start, take a look.

Download Project: Lucky Hit Capx

I think Families will help for things like this.

alspal can you explain further?

take a look.

I'm sorry,I can not open your capx,because You use the "or" plugin

Plugins are not allowed for the arcade here, therefore I do not install third-party plugins

alspal can you explain further?

btw families are not yet in construct2

vidi I removed the OR plugin, check back again.

First of all - Nice graphics

It looks like you, just like me, have been stumbling over the strange behavior of "Wait"...

Try this:

...and set your animation to LOOP

Weishaupt that's it!

Thanks!!
