[SOLVED] How do I select objects using this criteria?

Hi guys, I've been trying to do this selection for a while now but I can't quite get it to work.

I'll summarise the issue I'm having:

• 10 sprites in 'All Objects' family. (Can be a random amount but for now I'm using 10)
• Family has instance variables of "Dead" and "Running".

Let's say 5 of those objects have the 'Dead' flag set - I only want to trigger an action if ALL the remaining 5 objects have the 'Running' flag set.

It seems so simple, but I just keep bashing my head against a brick wall. I'm running into issues trying to code it so would value some expert advise on this please!

Thanks in advance!

One way could be to do this. Each is a seperate event.

Global number numPicked=0

Every tick -> set numPicked to 0

Family: is dead -> add family.pickedcount to numPicked

Family: is running -> add family.pickedcount to numPicked

NumPicked=family.count -> trigger action

Or you may be able to do this with two conditions in one event.

System: pick family by comparison family.dead+family.running>0

System: compare family.count=family.pickedcount

->trigger action

Mate, that's perfect!

I used the second option - hadn't really looked at solving the problem in that way, so thank you!

Cheers
