If one object in a container is destroyed, every other associated object in its container is also destroyed. If a condition picks one object in a container, every other associated object in its container is also picked.

This won't do. What if I have doors, interactive or breakable objects inside?

The answer seems to be containers. Off to read some documentation.

Just for clarification... group selecting and copy/paste within the editor is not sufficient. I need to be able to spawn the populated room by using events.

This seems like such a simple thing to not be able to figure out on my own. For example, I have a room full of furniture and I need to be able to plop another instance that same room furniture and all.

Hmmm... I'm starting to think arrays might be the way to handle this. Thoughts?

Thank you for the reply. How well does Construct handle save states after a galaxy is generated? I don't want it to be random every time you enter and leave a view.

Hi guys. I need to generate a random galaxy with let's say 10 stars. When you mouse over a star it will have a list of how many planets are present and what types. When you click on a star a new layout is loaded showing this system up close and in detail.

How I've done it thus far is on start of layout generate random stars. Each star has a variable named "planets." On star creation planets is set to random. On clicking on a star layout 2 is loaded and the amount of random planets are spawned based on star.planets.

There should be a cleaner and more effective way to do this. Possibly by using a database? I haven't touched those features of Construct yet.

Suggestions please. Thank you guys.
