  Ok, I have that when you're not the host send a message to the host with the value for the player you picked before.

  For the host it says that when it gets that message to set the global value character to int(multiplayer.message) and then it checks what the global variable is to spawn a character but that doesn't seem to work either

  I tried on signaling room joined, send a message to the host with a number for it's tag depending on the character picked and when the host receives a one of those numbers to spawn a corresponding character but that didn't work. How should I code it?

  In my multiplayer game I want players to be able to pick their characters so in the beginning they pick one and it's stored as a number in a global variable, how can I have the host access it?

  How could I make it so that players can choose to create a game instead of joining an existing one?

  Well if a person wants to do that how could I make it so that a person can create a game and be the host instead of just joining a game?

  I'm creating a multiplayer game and want players to be able to pick the character they want to play. One person is overpowered and the enemy, the other players are weaker and work together to defeat the overpowered player. How can I make it so that there is only one person who's overpowered like that? Or if this is simpler, how do I restrict what players can enter a room based on the other players already in the room?

  Here's what I have now and I think I may just scrap this for now and make it simpler by just having houses only being able to connect to roads one way

  actually at 22 and 23 it's checking (-105,0) and (0,-105) so that's fine. I fixed the other stuff you said and it works better but for some reason the order of the code (22-25) still affects what the connection variable will be for the houses

  Well depending on whether the road is to the left, right, above or below the houses, the houses connection variable should become a 1,2,3, or 4 and then it will spawn a car on the side that the road is on but for whatever the connection variable doesn't change the way it should

  Ok well still, can you tell me what's wrong with the road? I managed to get it to work with the test but for some reason it doesn't work with the road program

  I'm using where a "house" overlaps with a "road" to determine a houses variable but for whatever reason it doesn't work properly in the game but in a simpler test version it does, can anyone explain what I am doing wrong?

  My code said

  When car has LOS to car: Car stop

  When car doesn't have LOS to car: Car move along path

  that was it but for some reason it didn't work, maybe the cars were detecting themselves as well? I dunno but the way I worked it out seems to work fairly well too so for now I'll just stick with it while I work other bugs out of my game
