Instance Variable Help

Hello, everyone I just wanted to see I could get some help with a problem.

I have enemies that are referencing an Instance Variable as to what their action should be. Example: Action: 1 = Punch, Action: 2 = Kick Etc.

however, currently actions are chosen at random, what I would rather is have a list 1,2,3,4,5 this way I can restrict actions for varied enemies like 2,2,2,1 this enemy will mostly kick but sometimes punch.

My problem is that when I create a variable to control what actions can be picked it must be a text format to allow for multiple numbers but I then can't set the numerical actions to pick as they clash.

I hope this makes sense other wise

I want Instance Variable Actions to be set to a number in Instance Variable Available_Actions, where Available_Actions = 1,2,3,4

Action is a number.

AvailableActions is text (e.g. "1,2,3,4").

Set Action to

int(tokenat(AvailableActions, floor(random(tokencount(AvailableActions, ","))), ","))

Hey, thank you so much this works perfectly, my enemies are now unique with their actions. Thank you for explaining it so well I wouldn't of figured that out on my own.

If and when I release the game you'll be on the credits for this.
