problem with create actor

[Francisco]

Hi, I have a problem when I want to create actors. I want to put four or more enemies with the same properties as the first one but when I change for example, the animation of the first, the second actor created changes the animation also, the changes produced on one, are produced in all the others also. I can´t put more than one enemy at the same type.

Can you help me?

Thanks.

If in the action you use the name of actor, like 'enemy', the action will be executed on all enemy actors. To change a particular clone, you need to use the clone name, the 'Event Actor' actor or other special actor name.

for example, I have a script for Draw Actor of an object called PAQUETE:

if (paquete.x < -6) ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "paquete2_fix", FORWARD);

but it changes all the clones of paquete, not only this one.

and when a PAQUETE is moving to the left by a Timer:

paquete.x += -15;
PlaySound2("data/Enemy.wav", 1.000000, 1, 0.000000);

and another Timer creates a new second PAQUETE, the second PAQUETE doesn´t move, the first PAQUETE moves at double speed

I don´t know what to do.

Try change the code to:

Code: Select all

if (x < -6) ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "paquete2_fix", FORWARD);

With this change this works correctly, thanks

but the second PAQUETE actor created doesn´t move and the first PAQUETE moves at double speed when there are two same actors created. But when a collision destroy the first PAQUETE actor the second actor begins to move. how could I move the two same PAQUETE actors at the same time?

If you can solve this problem I can continue my game, this is the last problem at the moment

Thanks again.

PROBLEM FIXED!!!

the same thing you said. I converted all "paquete.x" to "x" and all works well

Thanks for all
