How do I pick multiple nearest?

I find 'pick nearest' very useful in many cases. But sometimes i feel it's a bit restricted. Can I in some way use this condition to pick multiple nearest? I don't know what would be the best solution to pick the 5 nearest.

Repeat it after a variable is set, and pick nearest without that variable. Or is there any other way?

I'm trying to use it for picking the 3 nearest spawnpoints on death, and then spawn at a random one of these.

Hm,

You could give the spawnpoints an instance variable "distanceToPlayer".

Then on death, do for each Spawnpoints, set instance variable to distance(player.x,player.y,spawnpoint.x,spawnpoint.y)

Then do a for each (ordered), set to ascending, with the evaluation set to the instance variable,

then stop at a random instance before you get to the 4th instance.

Thanks that could work too.

My original thought worked also after I tried it out, nice to see there's different ways to solve it
