When the object is picked up it will set that variable to true. And when the object is created it will check the global and delete itself if it is set to true. Logged

Do you have any idea why you cant go back if the room is persistant? Could something be wrong witth your room transtion? This info could help EDIT: Just remebered this,lol. In the create event(rupee) make a variable called "global.picked" and set it to false. And in the collision with link, set it to true. I guess you could then put in the room code"if global.picked=true>>"instance_destroy", you'd probably need to put an object ID in there also if theres more than one rupee.Try to get the persistant room thing working first though. « Last Edit: October 18, 2006, 11:15:40 pm by ZoSo » Logged

In all seriousness who's serious? Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 1485	i found a way to do this: in the Create Event of the player put this Code: GML switch(room) { case rmYourRoom: global.Rupee_number = 0; for (i = 0; i <= instance_number(objRupee); i += 1) { if !variable_global_array2_get('Picked', room, i) { global.Picked[room,i] = false; } } break; } then in the create event of the rupee object put this Code: GML { rupee_number = global.Rupee_number; global.Rupee_number += 1; if global.Picked[room,rupee_number] = true { instance_destroy } } And that should make the respective automatically delete itself i hope this helps « Last Edit: November 08, 2006, 01:14:15 pm by MiNalien » Logged

Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 122	make the rupee persistent and make sure that it's created by a controller that's persistent (destroy the rupee, not the controller). This way, the controller will makes the rupees variables global, and the rupee will still have been destroyed. of course...this could create lag due to the many controllers...so...maybe this isn't the greatest idea...

if you want Zelda type rooms, where everything is the same when you leave and come back. I suggest that you make the ROOM persistant, and if you come in collision with the rupee and it is destroyed, then it will STAY destroy. Same with a chest. if the "open" variable is inisiated, then it will stay like that forever. its kinda like the start of life or time, you can't go back to what you did ^_^
also, you can add as many chests you like as long as the"open" variable isn't a "global." variable"
Same goes for rupees. This is the code I did for all my rupees:

Instead of putting "Collison with rupee" in the main character's events(It will only get clustered)
put the drag and drops in the "Collision with Character" event in the RUPEE'S events.
(Play sound) (Rupee Sound)
(Drag and drop)Destroy instance SELF!
(custom Code) (Your rupee add code)

Hope that helps ^_^
