Q: Clone Variables

[zupernoc]

I am creating an actor (actor1) from another actors's script (actor2).

Code: Select all

actor1.angle = 45;


The above works fine. But how does one set the angle of one of the clones? example:

Code: Select all

actor1.01.angle = 45;

does not work

Ultimately I am just attempting to have 10 actors spawn from a single point, and move out at different angles. (similar to a particle explosion).

A solution to the above clone variable issue, or best practices advice appreciated. Thank you.

if you want tem to move in random direction, use on create event:

Code: Select all

angle=rand(360);
directional_velocity=rand(3);

that should make then go to random angle and move at a random speed

You need use the getclone function. Read here:

Thank you.

The getclone function worked.
I now have a sweet particle explosion.
