Thanks, Andres. So a couple of extra questions: how
does adding/removing pieces during play work when the
pieces are grouped with the board? Are 'out-of-play'
pieces actually on the board at all times, but you
make them invisible when necessary? Or do you
add/remove pieces to the group via scripting
throughout a game session?
You can do both. If the number of pieces is relative small or if they
have many different properties (images, properties, etc.), I recommend
you hide them. Otherwise it is better to add/remove via script.
Also, is there a good tutorial on using relative
positions? The Rev docs seem to be skimpy on the
subject. Sorry if this is a basic question, I'm still
new to Rev. ;)
I don't know about such tutorial. My recommendation is to move any
piece relative to the current position of that same piece.

Hello Josh
What you want to do is really simple. Just group the
board with the
pieces, and when you need to scroll the board,
scroll that group
instead. It will scroll both the board and the
pieces at the same
time. And to move the pieces over the board, use
relative positions.
We do the same on our Domino game.

Hello, all. I want to emulate a board game with
multiple playing pieces, and the board itself is
several screens wide, so it needs to scroll. I
know I
can implement the scrolling board by having its
image
set up as a group with its location locked and
adding
vertical and horizontal scrollbars. But the
playing
pieces (also images) on the board need to be able
to
change position when the user manually moves them,
and
also need to scroll in sync with the board image
(moving in and out of view) whenever the user is
using
the scrollbars.
Is it possible to achieve that somehow by setting
the
properties of the game piece images? Or will the
scrolling of the game pieces have to be done by
scripting?
