Finding All Bricks With a Radius Search [Solved]

[tommybricksetti]

Code: [Select]

initContainerRadiusSearch(%startB,5,$TypeMasks::fxBrickObjectType);
%mats = containerSearchNext();This only gives me the closest one.

Great, now how do I make a variable for each brick I find in the radius? Like normally I would use

Code: [Select]

%obj.hasSavedMatCol=1;but in this case that'd make only the first brick work.

[Port]

while (isObject(%obj = containerSearchNext()))
{
    %obj.hasSaedMatCol = 1;
}

"while(%object = containerSearchNext())
{
   //Do something with each %object here like putting them into an array or something.   
}"
could you not figure out what to do here
or did you not even bother to read
but thanks port

Figured out how to use

Code: [Select]

for()
{
}and

Code: [Select]

while()
{
}I wound up highlighting the %mats differently than I had originally planned to, and it looks a lot better.

Haha, not sure what you're trying to say buddy, but I stopped using %obj.[blah]=1; to designate whether the brick was highlighted or not; I did this, again, because %obj would make the function only work for the first highlighted object. So I could have just used %mats instead of %obj, i.e. %mats.[blah]=1; but instead I just made it a temporary highlight; so the same function that highlights the brick schedules it to return to normal.
