I'm making a project, and I just want to know...

Is there a way to get the x and y position of ten sprites and put them all together in a code/variable and get it so when you enter the (code?), the 10 sprites change position to the coordinates in it? I know. Confusing. >.< I can't figure out how to.

I used BirdByte's scripts, but how can I make the second part?

Here's the link to the project. I need something to record the x and y position of each note sprite, and changes when their x and y position change.

Is it possible?

I suppose you could average them all together... it would get awkward if some of them were in negative coordinates, though. I'll see if I can come up with a basic project that would show that.

I don't think that will work... Averaging them won't help, because the sprites each go to their individual place, and the seperate x and y coordinates for each one should be intact.

I tried something, but it involved lots of variables (A variable for each coordinate XP), and I bet there's an easier way.

Well, I DO have a 'decompiler/ recompiler' that allows you to store all of that data in two lists, one of 'X' values and one of 'Y' values. I could upload that if you wanted. I'll put a link in here if I can get something that works.

A list?

when gf clicked
add <x position> to [co-ordinates list v]
add <y position> to [co-ordinates list v]

Do this for all 10 sprites.

EDIT: @humhumgames: You changed your sig while I was posting!

That's about what I was thinking, except with a little added scripting so that you could edit the list.

humhumgames · 2012-08-23 14:40:51

10 sprites, and my sig changes automatically. tongue

Anyways, what do you mean by added scripting?

Bump. Here's the link to the project. I need something to record the x and y position of each note sprite, and changes when their x and y position change.

You can use this script...

when gf clicked
forever
 delete (all v) of [notex v]
 delete (all v) of [notey v]
 add ([x position v] of [note1 v]) to [notex v]
 add ([y position v] of [note1 v]) to [notey v]
 add ([x position v] of [note2 v]) to [notex v]
 add ([y position v] of [note2 v]) to [notey v]
 add ([x position v] of [note3 v]) to [notex v]
 add ([y position v] of [note3 v]) to [notey v]
 add ([x position v] of [note4 v]) to [notex v]
 add ([y position v] of [note4 v]) to [notey v]
 add ([x position v] of [note5 v]) to [notex v]
 add ([y position v] of [note5 v]) to [notey v]
 add ([x position v] of [note6 v]) to [notex v]
 add ([y position v] of [note6 v]) to [notey v]
 add ([x position v] of [note7 v]) to [notex v]
 add ([y position v] of [note7 v]) to [notey v]
 add ([x position v] of [note8 v]) to [notex v]
 add ([y position v] of [note8 v]) to [notey v]
 add ([x position v] of [note9 v]) to [notex v]
 add ([y position v] of [note9 v]) to [notey v]
 add ([x position v] of [note10 v]) to [notex v]
 add ([y position v] of [note10 v]) to [notey v]
end

There you go!

*scripts are too long and complicated for me to fix and they look incorrect in visual mode. You'll have to quote this and read the text to try and understand what's going on. Sorry about that..

____________

How about:

delete [all v] of [list v]

add (join ((abs ([x position v] of [note 1 v]))) ((abs ([y position v] of [note 1 v])) * (-1))) to [list v]
if <(letter (1) of (x position)) = (-)>
replace (item [last v] of [list v]) with (join (item [last v] of [list v]) (-))
else
replace (item [last v] of [list v]) with (join (item [last v] of [list v]) (0))
end
if <(letter (1) of (y position)) = (-)>
replace (item [last v] of [list v]) with (join (item [last v] of [list v]) (-))
else
replace (item [last v] of [list v]) with (join (item [last v] of [list v]) (0))
end

Then to get the values back:

set [counter v] to (1)
repeat (length of [list v])
set [letter v] to (1)
repeat until <(letter (letter) of (item (counter) of [list v]) = (-)>
set [x v] to (join (x) (letter (letter) of (item (counter) of [list v]))
change [letter v] by (1)
end
change [letter v] by (1)
repeat until <(letter) > (length of (item (counter) of [list v]))
set [y v] to (join (y) (letter (letter) of (item (counter) of [list v])))
change [letter v] by (1)
end
end 
set [x v] to (join (letter (length of (item (counter) of [list v])) - (1))) (x))
set [y v] to (join (letter (length of (item (counter) of [list v])) - (0))) (x))

Then set x and y to the x and y variables. This combines both x and y values in 1 item, instead of 2 to save space smile
