mesh transform?

No, two physics joints and a few round sprites.

Actually, using mesh transform may be a good idea. When I made that demo mesh transform was not yet available in C3.

Can I ditch the Preview_PICTURE_SET entirely? and just use another instance of "PICTURE_SET" for the preview purpose?

Yes, you can. Just make sure it's not picked in the event where you assign random animations. You can use a boolean instance variable isPreview for this.

When you need to pick the preview instance, use "isPreview set" condition

When you need to pick all random instances, use "isPreview is NOT set"

That's not a script. It's events.

Please study a few templates, they are extremely useful for a beginner.

1. I don't know. You have lots of objects with long names, I have no idea about their purpose.

2. Simply add "Sprite set animation frame to random(self.AnimationFrameCount)" after you set a random animation to the sprite.

You need to share your project file (C3P), not the exported game.

You can do something like this:
Global Variable CoinsBalance=0 Player on collision with Coin Coin destroy Add 1 to CoinsBalance CoinsText set to "Coins: " & CoinsBalance

If you want to make a nice effect when picking coins, check out the new template "World to HUD Position" in beta version of Construct.

Empty cells in the array make the task more difficult. You should either copy non-empty cells into a temporary array, and shuffle it. Or use this method with Advanced Random:

I don't understand what you are trying to achieve, even with the project file.

Can you explain?

If you need to shuffle 2D array, can you post two pictures - the original array and shuffled (manually, just as an example)?

If it's a simple linear gradient you may be able to calculate rgb values.

You can also post it on a DrawingCanvas and read pixel data from it.

If you are making a color picker, check out this page:

The logic I gave you was for a 1D array, but you have a 2D array on your screenshot. I don't quite understand how you want to shuffle it.

This is not a bug and will not be fixed.

You can post a suggestion here, if you think there is a better way to display arrays in Debug mode.

It's not required anymore, so it was removed.
