Hi,
Maybe so more information would help.

Are these slides on standard positions?

To select a random gameobject you can use the "SelectRandomGameObject"
or you can place the objects in an array and then use array get random

then after the 1st object is placed you could get the position and add 200px.
Then if you want a different radius maybe you can make the object a child of the previous object, then do a random rotate, detach the child and reset the rotation of the previous object.

I am not sure if this is what you mean, i hope it helped you out.

i am trying to create a custom editor inspector

with
Slide (cube)= input (if i enter 20 as input then playmaker auto generate 20 cubes)
Distance = input (its spawning distance between cubes)
countdown timer= input ( user stop to for few secs and in timeout delete that cube)

can anyone please help me?

Hi,

 in PlayMaker, you select a variable and you check "Inspector" and it will then show up in the Unity Inspector, you can then control these values from the inspector directly

Hi,

 for this you can now use the custom action "iterate" available on the Ecosystem which will let you go through incremental steps.

Check this tweet, it shows a screencast of an fsm using some form of iteration, in your case it should behave the same with the help of "iterate".


then everytime Iterate gives you the next integaer, create an object, and position it where you want, the distance between them can be done with a mathematical relation with the current index which will space even each object.
