I am making a quick puzzle game and need to add some gravity to a few objects. I can best describe this using a diagram.

X's are objects
O's are blank space and can be ignored
W's are the Wall tiles

OOOOOXXW
OOOOXXXW
OOOXXXXW
OOXXXXXW
XXXXXXXW
XXXXXXXW
XXXXXXXW
WWWWWWWW

Ok, so what i need to do is apply some gravity to the X's taking into account the stacking and also the interaction with the wall tiles.

I know it's really easy but i have been staring at this code for hours now and my eyes are melting and my brain has switched off!!

Please can anyone help a senile man??

If all your objects will have the same code, put them into a qualifier. That way you only have to do the code once for the gravity.

If the game is grid based then you could perform distance checks, and have the amount each object has to move stored in a alterable variable.

That's how I did it with my game Smart Klik:

If you had the issue of KlikZine that featured Kisguri's 'bejeweled' engine, you'd have no problem with this. I'm fiarly sure it's the October August '09 issue.
