Is there a way to spawn random actors in random locations without overlapping without using tables?

CabacoEntertainment

Hello,

I have seen TshirtBooth's video and it turns out I find it very complicated and I don't like to use tables, so I was wondering if it is possible to spawn random actors in random locations without overlapping without using tables.

My game has two different actors that spawn at the same X coordinates but different Y coordinates, they spawn every 0.7 seconds and I want them not to overlap. When clicked, the actors are destroyed.

Any help?

Thanks,

there is no easier way than using a table to store the positions. you would be better off spending the time learning to use tables than to continue to find difficult workarounds to avoid them. they are a powerful tool, and the sooner you learn how to use them, the better your games will be.

@koderiter722 ok so I tried using them, turns out the amount of actors spawned end at the same number of rows in the table I put. I want the actors to be spawned infinitely. Can anyone help me out?

Bump, please help guys. Without the solution I can't progress the development of my app

Just copy the rows down and make the table long enough to create the enemies you need?

You can't have them infinite AND not overlap can you?

And tables are awesome.
