How do I scatter object instances at different angles?

Hi,

I have an object that, upon a Touch event, is impulsed at angle away from the touch coords using Physics.

I expected that, upon dragging a new instance of the same object to the Layout at a different position, the Touch even would impulse each instance at a different angle.

What is happening though, is that both instances are being impulsed in parallel - using the same angle.

How can I achieve the desired effect - having each instance calculate the impulse angle independently?

Replace the impulse angle that you are using with a range, you can use random(x,y) to select a value from a range, or choose(x,y,z) to select a random angle from a selection.

The thing is, I don't want a random scatter, I want the angle to be a push originating from the Touch position outwards.

I don't think random() would help that, am I right?

I have a Touch event, which gives me Touch.X and Touch.Y, and 2 instances of the same object, each on a distinct X and Y position.

I tried to calculate:

On Touch event: Apply Physics impulse 1 at angle: angle(Touch.X, Touch.Y, boss.X, boss.Y)

But it does not consider the 2 instances of the boss Sprite independent X and Y coordinates, which is what I am aiming for.

Please advise.

Rephrasing:

I want to On Touch, For Each instance object of Sprite boss, to push it radially from the Touch tap coords.

I already have an Event:

On Touch For Each boss on boss: apply Physics impulse 1 at angle angle(Touch.X, Touch.Y, boss.X, boss.Y)

My latest guess is that this is not the way , because the on boss might be picking only the first instance to calculate the angle (boss.X, boss.Y), but I can't figure out how to pick the chosen instance inside the loop.

The logic you've put there is correct so let's see the structure in the event sheet if it's not working

To answer my own question, in my project I had another solution to a previous problem (how to preserve constant linear speed after every collision bounce), that was made for a single object (boss). that used a single variable to store the angle. when increasing the number of objects, when rectifying the speed, it also changed the direction of all objects to a single one.

I changed that part to work inside the For Each loop to account for multiple objects, and now it's working.

Ok great
