OK so i have a different kid of filler game, its a game like this
http://www.playfunfreegamesonline.com/play/pac-xon
i have it where i have the actor going over a grid that it passes over and makes that grid block "intermediate" till i hit a solid block, then it fills in all the intermediates as solid.
but i don't know how to have it fill in the space i just trapped in to fill in if there is no other actors in that space (fill in the space where the ghost isn't)
Also, the grid is one actor with about 15 rules, but its on a grid of 18X27 of itself, currently i have it spawning one row at a time once the first scene opens so once you get to the play part its mostly filled in and you dont have to wait too long. but if i have the grid already set up (486 actors, the 16X16 grid box actor) it has a load time that approaches infinity :P
how would u suggest approaching getting the grid in the game? also how would i fill in the gaps where i box in the grid?
any insight?

can you make the time inbetween spawning each column less then 2.5 tho? thats a while to wait
and sous cheifs/head cheaif? it is possible for an actor to realize it it surrounded by a "wall" of other actors
