Scrabble Like Game (Handling Tiles ?)

So I’m coming to Corona after having a cool idea for an app. I am trying to figure out how to set and assign tiles (ala Scrabble) to the stage. I’m not seeing how to get it done just yet. I’ve searched on the forum however I think I am not using the correct keywords. The tiles would be 8x8 or smaller.

Any help is appreciated. :slight_smile:

Well you probably want a table to represent your 8x8 grid.  You would use display.newImageRect() to load the tiles in.  In fact if I were doing that I would have a table that has an entry for each available tile and a 2nd table to represent the grid which holds pointers to the tiles in play.

Thank you very much. I’ll see what I can do and try to come up with something that works.

I was able to create a table grid as well as a drag and snap object but not a table with drag and snap features.
