  C2 does the looping for you if you only reference a single object. As soon as you need to deal with two different objects, you have to force the loop yourself, or you don't get what you want. In every other language, you would do a Foreach Fish every time.

  Try a For each Fish before the Target pick.

  You've got the right idea, just backwards. You need to Deactivate the group when the button is pressed, and Activate it after the Wait.

  For the array, just use a global variable for the index, and increment it each time it's used. Check against the end of the array to loop it back to zero.

  This has been asked many times. Do a search for "orbit".

  C2 doesn't let you pick newly created objects until the next top level event. Make a second "On start of layout", and move your Foreach there. There is a rope example here: . Your distance-joint code wasn't working for me.

  The TextBox will be consuming the click. I don't think C2 will tell you when a control losses focus. This is as close as you can get, as far as I know:

  TextBox->On clicked

  One way is to use "For Each (ordered)", where the expression is the timer value.

  For X from 0 to 3

  For Y from 0 to 3

  x=0

  OR

  x=3

  OR

  y=0

  OR

  y=3

  Create tiles

  In C2 you add the conditions first, then convert the block to use OR, via the context menu (right-click the left most part of the event and choose "Make 'Or' block").

  C2 always runs sequentially, unless you have Waits, which purposely delays code.

  I know what you want, you need to be clear when you want it. Post a CAPX to save time.

  You need to limit when it runs. Either in "On start of layout", or we'd need a lot more details on what you are doing.
