That is weird. I did think it should work as it i've never had any problem with it before. It seems to work if I just add a fixed number for setting the X and Y, but not if I reference values from...

Yeah I did try that and it doesn't work in my case. Just leaves all the created objects up in the top left corner at 0,0. Which is why I ended up using the extension instead.

Thanks, I will give this a try. Which one would that pick though? I need it to pick the enemy that has flag 1 off, but only if the other enemies flag 1 is on.

One way to do it is to use a foreach loop. I have ediited fredetmumu's example.

Fair enough. If you use the ini+ object I think there's options to encrypt files. The array object does this also.

All good, managed to get it all working how I wanted! Thanks for the help!

By the way, does anyone know what happened to Muddymole's website? It used to be http://sketchy.co.nf

Hmm, so it would seem. I might try adding a flag that when on, prevents the xvel from being added to xpos. Then temporarily storing the xvel to another value to determine the enemy's direction.

I think I used version 10 https://community.clickteam.com/threads/56836-Select-Object.

You could try putting the code within the enemy objects as a behaviour. Pretty sure that way the groups won't affect each instance. Someone here should be able to confirm this.

I have a side project I'm creating where I have a global string containing numbers separated by commas, e.g., "1,3,4" (this can change), along with an ini file with items named "item1", etc.

My character is 32x16.

No probs. You could also do always > move viewport object to top, but that would be more resource intensive.

The viewport object acts like a giant lense in the game. Any objects underneath get blown up to the required scale and objects that get created on top of the viewport are unaffected, e.g. the bullets...

Could you have it so that when the player is moving up, it checks if the mouse y position is greater than the players y position? Then if this is true slow the players speed.

Have you tried creating a new blank project and try it then? Also Fusion is all up to date for you?
