I'm having LOTS of trouble about making something that seemed so simple in MMF2 at first, making multiple objects. my problem is: I have a object called dummy, and on this object I fix thre other objects, the enemy sprite, the enemy collsion box and the enemy ground detector and everything works fine, but when i try to make instances of all those objects it turns into a mess.
the think I tried to do and was sure that it would work is: spreading values for the enemies dummy and the collisors, then i put an event like this:
if alterable value Z (dummy) = alterable value Z (ground sensor) then
set x position of ground sensor to x position dummy.
I tried so many things, don't know what else can i do to make that work, hope you can help me out.
It seems like that should work... Multiple instances is another MMF headache. I believe Clickteam should improve it... maybe some way to identify individual instances of one object easier. Hmmmm... HEY CLICKTEAM!
EDIT:It might be a headache, but the only thing that pops into mind is making more than one set-- just make however many will appear on screen at the same time. Then they can all have separate events. OR, I don't know if this will work... Make sure the detectors overlap the enemy, and then have it say: If detector is overlapping enemy, set detector to such and such X and Y of enemy. Somehow, having "one object is overlapping another" seems to point to which object you're refering to better.

Spread Value and MMF Loops! Look up some articles on it.
Edit:
Infact, here's an example I made a while ago for someone else asking a very simliar problem.
