Sprite Strip Placement

Hey everyone,

Today I am working on a sort of level select layout. I have created sprites for levels 1 through 20. To keep the number of objects to a minimum, I have put them all into a single animated sprite sheet.

How would I go about placing this sprite at x,y on frame 1... a,b on frame 2... etc etc?

You could have 'level' instance variable in your sprite, which defines which level it is. Then create an event:

at start of layout

for each sprite

.. set animation frame to sprite.level

This assumes all the frames are in correct order, so frame for level 5 is fifth and so forth :)

That would work but I am not looking for that effect. Let me try to draw it out below.

1 2 3 4

5 6 7 8

9 10 11 12

13 14 15 16

17 18 19 20

I want the one sprite to duplicate itself and show each separate frame. If not then I will just place 20 sprites, no biggy.
