  You can create a group with a blank sub-event and add static local variables. All the appropriate code would then be in the group with access to those variables.

  You need to use local storage to save your initial Universe, with an Array of the frames & UIDs. Then on the next startup you check if this exists first and reload the player's universe. You would then use the same trick, but I'd suggest a dictionary for loading each location, since the player will never hit all 30k locations, so you just need to save the locations that are visited at least once. If you place everything in a Family, and name each object type, you can read in the data and rebuild the same layout.

  Put the object into a Family, so you can reference the Targeter & Targetee.

  Use Pick by comparison (Targeter), where Team=1, Foreach, Pick by comparison (Targetee), where Team=2, Pick random instance. Have Targeter target Targetee.

  Do the opposite for Team=2, targetting Team 1.

  The bounding box for that half-tile is still the full height. You need to edit it manually.

  You could put everything in a Family and test against the Family.

  Set the scale of Explosion to Sprite1.Height/Sprite1.ImageHeight. This gives you the current scale of Sprite1.

  tokenat() returns a string. You need to convert it to an int:

  int(tokenat(...))

  Impossible to say from a screen shot. Can you isolate the code and post a CAPX?

  C2 uses 'loopindex' for the For loops. Change to For "" from 0 to 7

  -> Set value at (loopindex,0) to ...

  replacing your 'i' with 'loopindex.

  You don't need the Add 1 to i.

  You don't actually say what your problem is. However, event 10 sets text Ammo to 'Money', it should be 'ammo'.

  Looks like you are mixing C and JavaScript. 'function' is not a valid keyword, and I don't think setTimeout() is a valid call.

  Make sure all layers but the bottom one have "Transparent" set to yes in the Layer properties.
