Create Object + Object Selection

[Dynasoft]

How about:

Every second:
-create fighter at 0,0 from carrier

Fighter's flag 31 is off
-Set health to 5
-Set flag 31 on

?

Or even better, set the health AV to 5 in the object's properties in the editor, so that it is already set to 5 when you create it.

Say if you have "every 1 second: create a missile (or launch a fighter)". If two motherships launch at once then only one of them actually has its fighters created. The other's simply die / explode.

I'm sure it wasn't like this in previous versions of MMF. It just boggles the mind why they made it this way.

There ist anywhere a thread in this forum about how mmf2's object selection does work and i think it's the same in mmf2 and mmf 1.5.
If you check a value like "ready to shot", after the first hit mmf stops searching in objects.
It's not a bug, it's a feature... :crazy:

You can use fast loops this way:
On every 1 second spread value A in object "mothership".
On every 1 second start fastloop "fire".
On loop "fire": if value A from "mothership" = loopindex("fire") and a random counter = x then fire.

Maybe you can post a concrete example?

Ahh yes! Thanks guys! I set up something like the first idea for some of my objects but both of those ideas are excellent!
