Creating a Single Instance of an object in a fastloop

[Corlen]

I have a game where when you click on a unit it shows all the tiles they can possibly move to with tile highlight active objects. It requires a fastloop so that the tile highlights will all display instantly. Problem is, when I add the fastloop, it begins creating multiple tile highlight objects on the same tiles. Where there should be only 14 present for example, I get 98! How do I make a fastloop with multiple iterations only create one object?

Compair to the FastLoops Itteration Index?
Example:

+ On loop A
+ Loop A Index = 1
-> Create Object

This is way too easy a solution and probably isnt the solution to your problem, but its the way i understand it.

ForEach could be better, actually(, if the tiles are objects). It is actually faster than a fastloop anyway, so it's better for looping through objects...

The first person to get the reference wins a cookie.

Unfortunately the check to see if the loop index is equal to 1 didn't work in the various methods I tried. I also tried swapping it to a ForEach loop and it broke it.

Edit: I got it to stop doing it by turning on a flag for the tile highlight creation objects and checking for it even though they're supposed to be destroyed after they make the tile highlight objects.

You might have to modify it a little if you use a ForEach loop. If you give us an example file (a stripped-down version of the file you are working on that just has the issue), we might be able to help you more.
