How do I check whether an sprite object exists

Hello, I wonder ... how do you find out if there is any object without comparisons ?.

Something like "if exists (object_type)".

Returns true if there are objects.

Or put another way, how do I create an event to see if there is an object type ?.

That is, I just need to know whether the object exists or not.

I read the manual and all that is within reach but I do not understand something.

You can use "is on-screen" to detect it.

But that tells me if there on the screen, I need to know if there even if not seen on screen.

That is, if there are objects or not, whether they are displayed or not.

You could check if Object.count is not 0

Thanks, that was the solution, at the beginning I tried but it did not work well, why not work it?

This works well, but I prefer to use the other mode, but does not work and do not know why!.

I'm sorry, but I don't see why you'd prefer to set the text every tick, when it only needs to be changed when the number of sprites change..

Yeah, well it's just an example, forgetting the text, why this capx is not written "without objects"?

Because you are checking if there are no objects, before there are no objects..

And once there are no objects the event doesn't run anymore..

Put the system compare as a topevent and it runs..

Ok, solved, thanks as always.
