How can I add in groups of objects?

How do I...?

I’m trying to make a 2d roguelike platformer, and I would like the level to spawn prefab sections as the character moves along. am I going to have to manually tell it where to put each platform?

You’re going to want to build out “External Layouts”, which allow you to set up objects into separate scenes, and then you can spawn them in using the “Create objects from external layout” event action.

Search the forums here and on the wiki around External Layouts, and they should let you do what you’re doing.

Just make sure you set up your layout names something with a number, like “RoomType1, RoomType2, etc” so you can spawn them by going “RoomType” + RandomInRange(1,5) or whatever for however many rooms.
