Collectables/coin pickups

Hi there,

New hear, as are all of us, looking at creating a coin collection arena and have used the template game. It comes with 3 coins which spawn individually.

I’ve attempted to replicate this but can’t get it to work.

Is there a copy function anyone has found, or of not, what are the requirements to have a coin that spawns in the same manner as the others and is collectable?

Thanks.

Kind regards
Phil Travis

Hi, welcome aboard :slight_smile:

In the collection game the coins are actually ‘templates’ and are named ‘collectables’. This is because they have code attached to them so that they know to be collected, add to the score, etc. If you drag more of these Collectables into the map you’ll create additional pickups that then behave correctly.

If you wanted to, you could then edit the Collectables template, change the mesh, and every pickup will change since they are based on the same template.

Hope that helps :+1:

Hi Chris, I’ll look in the menu for collectables.

Kind regards

Thanks again Chris, found it, and deleting the coin I’d made fixed a issue I was having where the coins stopped spawning.

Also figured out how to change the sprite on the collectables, so can have some real fun there.

Kind regards
