Hello, i'm working on an infiltration game and i have a big problem.
I want to make a lamp (Two objects, the lamp (The parent obj) and the light (The child obj)).
I use this code
------------------------------
*Start of frame
=> Create "Light" at "Lamp"
*Always
=> Lamp: Spread value 0 In Value "ID"
=> Light: Spread value 0 In Value "ID"
------------------------------
Screenshot(In editor): http://puu.sh/3MrcV.png
Screenshot(InGame): http://puu.sh/3Mr20.png
------------------------------
The problem is i haven't found any method to destroy the "light" object when i click with my mouse(for example) in the "lamp" object.
I did the spreading method for the ID but i don't have any idea how to use this.
Have you got an idea ? thanks a lot.
Bye !

What you need to do is something like this
ID of Lamp = ID of Light = Destroy Lamp/Light
This way it marry the 2 up by comparing the ID's. if they are the same then they will both be destoryed. Hope that helps

Hi there, i just found an other way to do it
• When the bullet collides with the lamp
=> Create "LightDestroyer" @ Lamp
• When "LightDestroyer" is overlapping "Light"
=> Destroy Light
It workd because the light is at the same position of the lamp, and light destroyer is 32*32.
So when i create it near a lamp, it collides with the light.
I know this problem can be solved by another way but i tried a lot of things and this is the "old" technique which it works pretty good (Hide the LightDestroyer at start obviously)

Sorry to be invasive, but learn the ID way. It isn't that hard, spread the IDs,and if you need, tell a counter to say you the ID of a object if the Mouse is over it, so you can be sure of the ID each object has.
As a default, make so that each object will have the ALT VALUE A named as "ID".Then you need to work by comparing two IDs, and saying what happens if they aren't equal.
Believe me, I tried to work without using IDs, and I just lost my time, you will really need to understand how to spread values sooner or later.
