Hey guys,

I am trying to draw particles at an object's position. This works perfectly fine, but only if there is one of that object. If there are multiple, it draws the particles at the one that was created first.

This is the code I am using:

if instance_exists(obj_fire)
{part_particles_create(sys,obj_fire.x,obj_fire.y,fire,1)}

BTW, that code is in the step event.

Can you guys tell me what I am doing wrong?

with(obj_fire)
{part_particles_create(other.sys,x,y,other.fire,1)}

That should work.
Not really doing anything wrong, just misunderstanding it. You are creating the particle at fire.x and fire.y, which are variables held by the fire object. Game maker doesn't know which fire object you mean, so it just assumes the first one. This code repeats your action for each fire object, using their own variables.
