Hi Chris! I'm having a great time poking around this template right now-- everything is laid out neatly and is super easy to use! I do have a question, tho: I'd like to have color variations for each animal, if possible (so all 4 animals in each barn look different from each other). How would I go about making this change, if it's possible?

Thank you again, this template is great!

Hi, DeeOddGames.
To have all 4 animals in a different color each, just add a new number variable to the animation objects (Chicken, Cow and Sheep) named, for instance, "Color".

Then, go to each object, duplicate each animation there (Left_Up, Down, etc) and add the number to the end of each animation (for example, for chicken color 1, its animations have to be "Left_Up1", "Down1", "Up1").

Next, go to the EV_Animal event sheet, locate all events that have their animations (like group 52 and all sub-groups of group 191 - use the search tool to find all) and add the variable to the end of each Set Animation actions: for example, on event 197 (Set animation to), instead of "Left_Right", write "Left_Right"&"Chicken.Color - this way, the animal will pick the correct direction and color.

I hope this helps, my friend.
