Attaching layers

[zlaker]

I'm having troubles when it comes to attaching layers. Is it possible to attach a SMB1 Green/Red Cheep Cheep Generator onto a SMW Red Platform while it's on (by on i mean by moving).

No, it's not possible to attach a moving NPC to another moving NPC

Attaching generators to NPCs should be possible. Put the Cheep Cheep generator in a layer and select it for Attach to Layer for the platform.

It normally is possible by generators. I made a Tutorial back then of how to attach NPCs to another NPcs but that isn't 100% relative to your questions but you get the point anyway.

Well I was able to make it work by putting the Cheep Cheep Generator a bit away from the platform. This can now be locked.

Ah, this is the problem then. The reason why this happens is that a Generator must be free no matter which objects. If a NPC Generator literally touches any objects like a Block, Player or another NPC, it won't spawn. Tecnically if you put a Generator next to another NPC, most likely it won't spawn because a NPC is for odd reason a little bit bigger. Well, Sprites in general do have their own behavours anyway.
