Infinite Looping regardless of loop parameters

I was working on learning arrays by programming a game that creates 15 sets of questions and answers from data in a db.

I added the plugin for Random Arrays, and maybe that is when it started, but I removed that plugin from this example, and it's still going crazy.

Please check Layout 2. It is a simple

For "test loop 2" from 1 to 3:

System | Set RandomNumber to int(random(0,31118))

txtRandomNumber |Set text to RandomNumber.

Instead of 3 loops, the loop goes on endlessly.

Layout 1 is basically everything I was coding but disabled as I tried to eliminate problems and add text boxes to watch my variables.

My bad - forgot the Array folder

The loop indeed goes endlessly since its run every tick.

I suggest you read again how events work, this should help you figure out yourself what's the better way to properly organize your event sheet.

If you want your loop to only run to 3, once, on start of the layout, put it as a subevent of the event "Start of layout". It will then just run once.

I will definitely read your link. I have used for loops before without any issues. I guess I had used it as a subevent before though. Thank you so much for your patience with me.
