Hello all!

Im making a Street Racer clone, but im stumped on a few problems. I have an object which is one of the cars that move down the road and hit you, and of course I have the main character, which you control. My question is how would I clone the same object and randomly place these objects on the road? Thank you for your time!

well, something like this?

lets say the road is a matrix stretched over 2 points, (100, 100) & (150, 400). the road width is 50 and road length is 300

+ Code Snippet

CarObjNum = 100
StartNum = 101
NumberOfCars = 20
load object "car.x", CarObjNum
for id = StartNum to NumberOfCars+StartNum
clone object id, CarObjNum
LeftOrRight = rnd(1)
if LeftOrRight = 1 then X = 120 : else : X = 140
position object id, X, 0, rnd(300)+100
next id
