So i have been studying a dbpro game lately to see how it works, and every one of its levels are made of many different pieces floating in relation to each other, and during gameplay, different platforms (the floating 3d thingys) have different textures. Actually, so you know what game im talking about so you can see for your self, all the credits go to 'The Little Eggy That Could.'

New 3d marble game coming soon!

Thanks! Now how would you determine which limb is which if it's all on one object?

limb name$ returns the name of the limb (if the level object has named limbs). Otherwise you would have to loop through each limb and assign it's number to a well suited variable name.

My computer surpasses all the technologies of the day. What computer do I have?

Different platforms are generally different objects.
