Compare the X of each object ?

Hello,

I am trying to do a car race for my son, he would like to have to display throughout the race who is first, second, third and last.

It is a straight line race and participants must press a key to add a value to the X of the car.

it is then necessary to compare the values of the X of the car 1,2,3 and 4.

Thank you

Have a good day.

This is not the most accurate approach by any means, but something you might try first:

1. Get all your car sprites and put them in a family, call it "cars" for example.

2. Then add instance variable to that family called "car_number" and in your layout select all 4 cars and give them unique car numbers (from 1 to 4)

3. Create a new sprite object, call it "finish_line" (if you don't have one already) and place it at the finish... line

4. Create a new text object, call it "leader" and place it where you want to have it shown on the layout

4. In the events sheet do the following:

Origin points matter in this case, so you might want to create new ones if you want further accuracy.

Another method is to add an instance variable to each car called "var_X".

For each Car

set Car.var_X to car.X

Then use Car "pick highest/lowest" to pick the car with the highest X value.
