Achievement question

jigglybean

Hi all,
A quick question about Achievements. I've 30 levels in one of my new games but it doesn't yet have any achievements. I wanted to include these in my game and seen a video on how to do this - which is fine.

My question is -
can I create just 1 actor(achievements) that works for all the levels? Or must I copy that actor into every scene for my 30 levels?

thanks

You'd have I copy it to each level. A work around would be to trigger the achievement (Boolean) and then trigger it in GameCenter when you reach the main menu or level select, etc.

hmmm ok thanks. Shame you cant copy and paste in GS windows(with the rules), would make life easy

If you have complex rules you want to copy, drag them to the Custom Rules area then you can use them just like any Behavior in GS.

I've found that custom ones wipe if they use self attributes, even if those attributes exist on the actor you're dragging the rule/group too. Very frustrating at times! Otherwise they're very handy

Yeah, I wish if you had already set up matching self attributes that it was smart enough to know that and just fill they way the should without having to re-establish the links.
