super snip galaxy AND TYPO FIX Im just using the standard map editor

super snip galaxy 2 I'm using the open world map editor. super snip 3D LAND

I'm using the standard map editor.

...But you said:

I'm using the open world map editor.

XD I don't even know what's going on at this point XD

So what are you doing? Are you trying to put a treasure chest with effects in a map in sb and maybe animate it?[/quoteI Yes, I'm not sure how to though.I have trouble randomly generating items.

Can you please describe in depth how you are having trouble? It helps us help you when you do.

Randomly generate the chests and go through your map checking each tile. If your character or whatever interacts with it, generate a random item id. You can randomly generate them by using nested loops and using the I and J incrementors of the loops as x and y coordinates. Based on a random number (if rnd==123 etc) you can then bgput tile on the coordinates each inner loop iteration. Higher conditional numbers make the spawn rarer.

my SB doesn't have the new dlc that allows you to make nested DEFs and loops so i can't test this _{this is a joke}

Then what's the point wasting everyone's time? Anyways http://smilebasicsource.com/page?pid=958 can help with movement and maybe interaction @Z_E_R_O.

dim chests[0]
def addchest x,y,contents ' adds chest with contents to array
 push chests,x
 push chests,y
 push chests,contents
end

for i=0 to len(chests)-1 step 3 'loops through chests array
 'chests[i] = x
 'chests[i+1] = y
 'chests[i+2] = contents
 if collisionwithplayer(chests[i],chests[i+1]) then 'checks collision between player and chest
  animatechest chests[i], chests[i+1] 'animates chest opening
  giveplayeritem chests[i+2] 'gives player item
 endif
next

An alternative more efficient way would be to keep a pseudo-2d array full of coordinates of the chests on the map. Then to loop through this list instead of the entire BG layer. Like this maybe:

dim chests[0]
def addchest x,y,contents ' adds chest with contents to array
 push chests,x
 push chests,y
 push chests,contents
end

Every frame you can loop through the chests array like this:

for i=0 to len(chests)-1 step 3 'loops through chests array
 'chests[i] = x
 'chests[i+1] = y
 'chests[i+2] = contents
 if collisionwithplayer(chests[i],chests[i+1]) then 'checks collision between player and chest
  animatechest chests[i], chests[i+1] 'animates chest opening
  giveplayeritem chests[i+2] 'gives player item
 endif
next

Much more efficient than looping through the entire BG tile layer of course.

-snip- Ffs, Thank you so much. it worked perfectly.

ffs? sorry I don't use internet slang as often as I should.
