Currently in Generation:4001 you lay a piece of road down. Here is what is does:

1) It detects what location the player placed it.
2) It works out whether the spot exists (so has it been placed on the map?)
3) It sees what number that area it is.
Each tile on the map has a number. For this example, 1 will be grass, 2 will be a piece of road and 3 will be an obstacle.
4) If the area number is 1, it will place the road. If it equals 2 or 3, it will say "cannot place".

Now if you want a long piece of road, you have to place it on every individual tile. I need it to allow the player to drag the road tile along a line, preferably following the structure mentioned above.

hmm hmm maybe you can use

when gf clicked
set(_counter_manager v) to [1]
set(_counter2 v)to [2]
set(_counter3 v)to [3]

Forever
Go to [mouse-pointer v]
set (x v) to (x position)
set (y v) to (y position)
add (x) to [X-position v]
add (y) to [y-position v]
if (Mouse down?)
go to x:(item(set_counter_manager) of [X-position v]) y:(item(set_counter2) of [Y-Position v]
stamp
if <<(item(set_counter3) of (x-position)=[0]> or < (item(set_counter3) of [x-position v]>[0] >
change (_counter_manager) by [1]
else
if <<(item(set_counter3) of [x-position v]=[-1]> or <(item(set_counter3) of [x-position v] <[0]>
change (_counter_manager) by [-1]
if <<(y-position)=[0] >< or >[0] >>
change set_counter2 by [1]
else
if (item(set_counter3) of [y-position v]=-1 or (item(set_counter3) of [y-position v] <0
change (set_counter2) by [-1]
change (set counter) 3 by [1]
else
if z key pressed
delete (all v) of [X-position v]
delete (all v) of [Y-position v]

(couldn't get the sratchblocks right since it kept cutting some parts out :? ) Hope this helps you in some way ! smile or gives you some idea hmm

Hope this helps ya out xD (yet again I fail to turn the code into scracthblocks so sad v.v )

If you want I can make an example of the code in scratch and upload it or send it to ya via skype ? hmm
