  • Wow. Hierarchy is powerful. Had no idea. So simple! Thanks for the shout this will make everything easy

  • Ah. Yeah. So. I have bodies linking to bases.

    But, I have several sets of bases. All spawning in their own torso.

    Will I need to make several bodies to corilate to their own group?

    Guess I'll find out soon enough

  • Wow! Yup, I'm a construct 2 guy. Just working from what I remember.

    I'll try hierarchy or containers. Construct 2 had families. I toyed with the idea, but couldnt find it..

    So just tried brute forcing it.

    Lionz, no it's a variable called bodycount. Was just trying to simplify it for the example.

    Thanks for advice guys. Apprieciated

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • So. I have player base(s)

    I have bodies.

    Each base spawns and pins a body. And gives it the same variable to group them. count.

    I want the base to tell the body its angle every tick. In a variable .deg.

    I've tried

    for each torso, base.count=torso.count

    Set torso.deg to base.deg.

    But this only seems to affect one instant of the torso, or it affects them all.

    Is there a better function to do this? Like for each instance.

    Or, a better way to check sprites individually?

    Or should I group them into families?

    I can post a demo if needed

  • Got it.

    For each enemy base.

    Player base, pick nearest enemybase.x/y

  • I have 2 player base. And 2 enemy base.

    I want each player base to locate the closest enemy base and move towards it

    I'm sure this is obvious. I might just be a bit fried.

    Thanks

  • Hi all! I was a user of construct 2. Was in the forum all the time. But, life is life, and I've been busy.. for 6 years.

    Suddently I remembered construct 3 was in development years ago! Super excited to try it out!

    3d objects and camera. Mwah, dream come true. I basicly gave up trying to make something 3d years ago. Original doom 3d builds just weren't working.

    So, asides from a kenshi style avatar (4 elements) game I'm starting.

    I'm incredably excited to see starwing NES style game potential!

    Wanted to know if you can layer 3d objects, so a spaceship can traverse a xyz universe?

    Also, can you make 3d objects have a 3d shape. Like a sphere not a square.

    Just bought and started using. Cant wait!
