How to draw a line between the same object?

[blast]

Lets say I have three different objects. A pineapple, apple, and orange. But all the apples that are near each other I want to draw lines to. Apple to apple. How do I do this? I can only draw a line between two different objects, not the same object.

This sounds very similar to the issue of trying to check for collisions between instances of the same object. The solution there is to add hidden ‘collision’ objects and stick/link them to the actual objects. Then check for a collision between the real object and the collision object. See here for more details:

Collision with the same instance

Unfortunately in GDevelop you can not make this kind of comparisons between instances of the same object. It is one of the limitations of GDevelop. The program just simply doesn’t know which instance you want to compare to which instance and then which instance you want to manipulate, delete, change…etc If you continue on this path it is going to only generate bugs in your game. The only reliable solution is to have an invisible collider object linked and moved with each instance and when you …

So in this case perhaps you need to draw a line between your apple objects and a new, hidden linked object attached to each apple…
