How do I Construct 2?

Hello,

I am attempting to make a simple game for a school project. The game I am trying to make is a simple RTS in which the player will control several tanks by selecting or deselecting them, by dragging a selection box around them, and then right clicking to move them. I have the box selection working, I have the movement working. The issue I am having is that the tank(s) will move regardless of whether they are selected or not.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

You can check for each tank if it is overlapping your selection box. Then you can give a value to a tank variable, for example "isSelected : true".

And after than they can only move if isSelected = true.

So, this is what I have now, and I get and error message when I do this. I'm probably doing something wrong.
