MMF2 - Need help with match 3 type of game

**VikramJhaveri** · 13th August 2009, 03:37 PM

I got most of the gaming running. Could use some help/advice on two problems:

My game is a Match 3 Game

1. When my balls fall from above on click. I want it to fall in columns and rows. How do i achieve something like that?

2. How would i go about coding it to earase the balls when they are 3 or more.

I know this game is in the KlickDisk Mag. I would buy it, but there is no online edition yet. I am in India, but would buy it in a sec if you ever make an online edition i can buy.

Also one more problem. The ball is invisible until clicked and it falls. How do i make it visible? I tried checking visible tab, that didnt help.

I actually do not want to upload the file for freeloaders. I am just looking for any suggestions anyone may have on how to achieve any of the functions.

BTW Figured out the earase ball on actual Match.

Now only need help with the following:

Plan to upgrade my license soon.

Generally speaking, it's not possible to describe a generic problem, expect us to know how your code looks so we can figure out the cause of the problem, or give you a generic solution that works no matter how you programmed it.

You must post an .mfa, otherwise it's impossible for us to help. Another thing you should take into account is that you're still a beginner. If I were you, I would start out with trying to learn as much as I can even at the cost of not keeping source files secret. People don't have a tendency to steal them anyway. This is an extremely nice and helpful community, use the help you can get to get really good with MMF so you as soon as possible don't have to get stuck with the basic types of problems.
