example for stillhawk for this thread http://community.clickteam.com/showthread.php?t=69087

I have been trying to understand fast loops for quite a while. I have studied the tutorial, read extensively through the forum, and experimented. For some reason, I just don't get it. So here is my situation:

I have an active object duplicated 12 times and spread value from 1-12. These are my "boxes." Then I have items (active objects) that need to be stored in the boxes. When the item is clicked, it should overlap the first "empty" box in the row of 12 boxes. It might be the first box, the last box or any box in between.

I thought that a fast loop would be the best way to identify the empty box and position the item in it, but I just don't know how to do it.

Would it be possible for someone to make an example for me that accomplishes this?

I would be ever so grateful.

Thanks,
stillhawk
