Title: Can I do this using ArrayMaker?[SOLVED]
Post by: Splankton on March 13, 2014, 11:14:17 AM

Hi,
If I have say, 40 empty gameobjects, each set at different positions. And say, 4 Arrays that will hold 10 of the empty gameobjects.  Can I then, randomly populate the 4 Arrays with 20 cube objects.  So I end up with something like this:-

Array1 = 5 cubes
Array2 = 2 cubes
Array3 = 10 cubes
Array4 = 3 cubes

If ArrayMaker can randomly populate multiple Arrays, how would I start on doing this?  I'm thinking maybe, create a master Array with the 20 cubes, create a temp array in each Array to hold the empty gameobject positions.   Then somehow randomly populate each temp Array with the cube Array.
Can someone give me some advice?

Ok, I have it working, its randomly positioning the cubes, except not all of the 20 are getting positioned.  Its weird, sometimes 14, sometimes 15.  Any thoughts why this is?

I've fixed it now, it was just simply positioning some objects at the same position more than once. Phew!
