Is there a way to make it so that when you click and drag, you can affect multiple sprites or no. I am making a sandbox game and would like to know if I could do that.
Iâm definitely a flowlab rookie - but if it helps I might try this:
On mouse down, read X and y. On mouse up, read X and y.
Take these X and yâs and divide them, to find the centre of the region you selected.
Spawn an invisible âselectorâ sprite at those coordinates.
All other normal sprites react to proximity of the selector, and toggle the âI am selectedâ logic chain, doing whatever you want them to do when selected.
On mouse click down, read X and y,. On mouse click up read X and y. If the two readings are within 10 units of each other, rather than spawning a selector, instead send a message to all selectorâs telling them to destroy themselves.
All your other sprites would have a timer triggered by the âI am selectedâ chain which checks every 10/s if they are STILL in proximity to a selector. If they are no longer, turn off the âI am selectedâ logic chain.
Iâll play around with an example later today.
