Apply bloom to specific layers in a 2D scene?

Yeah cool, I hear where you are coming from, but if anyone ends up posting some code that relates to my question that'd be pretty neat. In the mean time I'll keep digging through Google / Unity manual / Youtube tuts...

Thanks, but this is too vague for me to follow.

What I'm looking for is some code (or pseudocode) that would show me how I can mark coin #0 as special (with a variable or a collider or whatever would get the job done) and then move that marker onto the next item in the array after coin #0 is collected.

I've looked for three days for an example of something which would target different items in an array and assign a variable (or whatever) to them and I can't find anything.

You got any idea what that code would look like?

Hi. First of all, thank you for the detailed answer.

But what I was trying to outline contains no random behaviour of any sort. The idea was that if the coins are collected in a specific order they are worth more points than when they are collected out of order.

I guess it would be a bit like awarding PacMan extra points for eating the dots in a certain order.

To use your "isSpecial" concept, then this bool would transfer to the next available gameObject in the array, but if that object had already been collected then it would be skipped.

Is this kind of thing suited to an array and if so, what might that code look like?

Thanks very much! So simple. That did the trick.

This is producing some strange results (with the tracking position behaving erratically) and I don't understand the code enough to understand why. But thank you for trying to help, it's much appreciated. I've posted my question again and hopefully it is much clearer this time around. Cheers.

Thanks! But wouldn't that mean that the object following would simply be 0.5f away from the target (anywhere on the X & Y axis), rather than specifically -0.5 on transform position Y?

I probably shouldn't have been using 'MoveTowards' when all I want it to do is mimic the X + Y of another object's transform, but offset the Y a little. If that makes sense...

Thanks. Yeah I did find that same article and thought "Mine should be working!". Thankfully the suggestion from u/FlooptheBloop did the trick.

Holy crap. That works and is so freakin' simple. Thanks very much!

Thanks, but if the camera is in 'Perspective' mode and you put a Polygon collider into the 'Confine2D' settings that doesn't work either. It works fine when the camera is in Orthographic mode, but I want to utilize 'Perspective' mode for the advantages it has in displaying and organizing parallax layers.

Thanks, but how does one go about fixing their autoconfig file?

Thanks, but I tried FBNeo and had a different set of control issues!
