i want to be able to pick up 6 keys in a specific order and not just when the player collides with each one.

could someone please help?

You could manually code this with a counter or an alterable value.

For this example we will call the alterable value that we are using "KeyNumber". And the keys will be called Key1-6

If player is overlapping Key1 and KeyNumber = 0, set KeyNumber to 1.

If player is overlapping Key2 and KeyNumber = 1, set KeyNumber to 2.

If player is overlapping Key3 and KeyNumber = 2, set KeyNumber to 3.

If player is overlapping Key4 and KeyNumber = 3, set KeyNumber to 4.

etc. Do this for all keys and you will only be able to collect them in the order 1-6.

thanks for the help
i have seven sets of keys first set 6 keys so your example will work fine. the next set of keys = 3 and so on.
could i set up the alt varibles to identify each seperate key and still use your example?
