How do I…

how can I check the animation number of sprites around red one (in centre)

What is the expected result

I want to store animation numbers in scene variables

1. Get the centre X & Y of the middle tile. Store these 2 values into variables named MiddleTileX and MiddleTileY.
2. Code the following:
   
   

You will now have a structure with 8 sub-child values;

TileAnimation[-1][-1]
TileAnimation[-1][0]
TileAnimation[-1][1]
TileAnimation[0][-1]
TileAnimation[0][1]
TileAnimation[1][-1]
TileAnimation[1][0]
TileAnimation[1][1]

which hold the animations for the following tiles:

Wrote this code:

But it stores only [1][1] tile animation value:

[MrMen]

Yeah, apologies. I wrote those events but didn’t test them.

This one works:

[Mixturka]

Now it is working only for positive x_inc and y_inc indexes in structure:

For [0][-1] it should return 1 but it returns 0

[MrMen]

How are you setting the variables MiddleTileX and MiddleTileY?

Also, you should have those events in a conditional event, so it doesn’t get run every game frame.

I deleted setting of that variables by accident now algorithm working nice.
Thank you!
