I have a global variable, which has the initial value, string, as 'Mothership'.

I then try to match this up in an event with 'System - MyVariable = 'Mothership' ' but it doesn't trigger. I've made sure the event is firing and I've copied and pasted the text to make sure it's an exact match.

What am I doing wrong?

Do you have quotations in anywhere? There should be quotations around the string in the condition, and there should not be quotations in the properties editor.

Ahhh, maybe that was it. I removed it and used a number instead but I think I did have quotations around the string in the property so I'll look out for that in future.
