  • Hello!

    I have a family called Animals with several instances on same screen.

    This family has a instance variable, let's call it "var1".

    And, finally, I have an sprite called dummy with several instances on same screen.

    I want to every tick set var1 of each instance of family Animals to:

    distance(Animals.X,Animals.Y,dummy.X,dummy.Y), picking the dummy that is nearest to Animals.

    When I have one single instance of Animals, it works. More than one, the var1 get non sense values.

    I don't know how to pick all members of Animals to get this action right.

    Could you help me?

    Thanks!

  • So you also have a pick nearest dummy condition I guess? I think system for each 'Animals' then pick nearest dummy to Animals on the conditions should work.

  • Hi! Thanks for replying!

    Yes, as I said, I've picked nearest dummy.

    I tried to to use system for each Animals already. It doenst work.

    One instance set the var1 correctly, the others get a static value.

    But, could you analyse my event? Is there anything wrong?

  • The addition of the every 0.1 seconds will affect it just remove that.
