Random Key Pressing Problem

[Jay]

I have recently been making a program that randomly presses keys based on what you select from a drop down list. However, when I duplicated the edit box and the drop down list and added IDs everything stopped working. What can I do to make it work, without cloning them and programing each set separately?

The "Alterable Value A of Edit Box = Alterable Value A of List Object" condition does not do anything and makes no sense. It is affecting the scoping of the next condition.


Every time the game reaches that condition, it will see it is a value comparison condition. It then scopes the "earliest" (first created) instances of both objects, and compares them. Since you spread values, both will have Value A = 0, and this condition will always be true. Since only the "Earliest" list object is scoped now, when it proceeds down the line and checks the

"1 chances out of Value A(Edit Box)"

condition, the only edit box scoped will be the "earliest" (even if it hadn't been already scoped, it would scope this one anyway as it is again referencing a single value).

So your program is only checking the earliest edit box. No matter which boxes you edit, only the value of the earliest edit box and the earliest select box will be used.




In order to make this program work, you need to put your code inside a "Loop". This loop will iterate through each instance pair of the objects, and run the comparison on them, once per frame. I've made an example for you of how this works.

Thanks a lot. Also, when running loops does mmf2 go through every instance of an object in order? Or is it random?
