Grouping objects

Hi,

I've got same types of objects in my game that I would like to call actions for in groups ( not to confuse with groups in the event sheet ). I figured I would create a variable "Group" and set it for example to 1 for some objects, then 2 for others etc and that it would be a good start. But then I have no idea how I should check for sprites with same group without using specific numbers. I would want to check if sprites have same variable value without specifying what value it is. Putting them in to families is not a possibility. Any ideas?

Thanks

Why don't you simply push the UIDs of the objects you want to group to an array? You could then iterate through them and call the necessary actions.

How that would have to work?

Just a moment ago I've menage to separate groups and apply different sequential movements to them. But only problem I have is with Every Second condition - don't know how to pick up it per group and so it is applied from one object to all objects.
