Making a character selection

Chobbiface

Hey everyone, thinking of adding a character selection into my game and just wanted some thoughts on the best approach for implementing this. Say if you can choose to be a 'man' or 'woman' in the game. I'm thinking to make an integer attribute e.g. if =1 change image to man, if =2 change image to woman; and the same for all the animations. Or would it be better to have a ready made scene for man and woman e.g. if attribute =1 change scene to the 'man' one etc. I'm guessing the first method would be more memory efficient. Is there any other way to do this?

Cheers!

Hey CBL,

Here is how I did it:

Rule: When Touch is pressed
When game.man is true:

Change Image to Man

Rule: When Touch is pressed
When game.woman is true:
Change Image to Woman.

I used the same actor and just unlocked it.

Hope this makes sense.
