  Congrats for completed the project. I felt the theme a bit too casual yet the gameplay not resemble that fashion. Kinda lost in the beginning since the instruction just a static text without any pointer or other interactive cue. UI needs to be more distinct than circle pieces as they are really similar in shape.

  Use 'On item get' then set corresponding variable or array from the value.

  Did you check the collision property one by one all or all at once? If that is done already probably not so correct logic you put in events. Show us where and how the collision should occur.

  The nature of event is always picking last picked or last created instance so a condition "filter" required to pick proper instance to runs action over. Use loop 'For each' so every instance will execute the correspond event.

  Maybe I am missing something about collision you talking about. It is a LineOfSight you are referring to?

  The rest value order would be consistent if you put number as sorting reference (first row): dropbox.com/s/o2vudqchkda064t/sorting%26associate.capx

  Sorting string is all about length which priority is the longest put first in first row.

  Isn't that player_id is number? If so you need to convert the string from local storage using int. I think you confused yourself between key and item value.

  Tried refresh the game many times but just stuck at screen with "New Best Time!".
