    @MultipleParticle The text says that it's sorted by y-coord, tiebroken by x-coord. Which is equivalent to what you mean by left to right and then down.

    for me my IDs go to left to right and then down, but you say its top to down and the right, is that an error? or did i missunderstand it?

    @NPC2 What do you mean by it not working? What did you do, and what did you observe? You can try checking manually that all the particle IDs are in order.

    The particle ordering process appears to not have worked, for me.

    @TPTbomb So permanent white BRAY is somewhat harder to make, because it takes a long time to disappear, and you don't want to be shooting it onto itself. Permanent white BRAY is covered by the time you get to lesson 105 -- I'm guessing you've seen it since you're talking about DRAY? The DRAY is used to delete the white BRAY before it is created again the next frame. You can use CRAY instead of DRAY, but beyond that, there's no other way around this issue.

    @TPTbomb If you need help with something specifically, you can show me a save and I'd be happy to help you with it. If you can get solid SPRK to work but not permanent BRAY, you might want to continue to the next lesson where we cover that.

    Yeah I've tried the debug tool, reordering the particles with the local save thing, and placing the particles in update order when I'm making subframe but it will not activate electronics at all, I'm not sure whats going on. I've also tried layering some stuff and it makes the constant SPRK work but otherwise nothing happens.
