  You can use a gradient sprite with Blend mode Destination-in.

  old: XML.StringValue("/story/line—[@name="&Name&"/text()") new: XML.StringValue("/story/line——/text()")

  To treat the Line variable as an integer, make sure there are no single-quotes (so you don't need to prefix it with a zero), otherwise it would have to be Text. For text however you do need the single-quotes. You were missing the single quotes and the end square-bracket around Name.

  As I said, you need to check your Touching state in the same event, otherwise you change the state and then immediately test for the new state, which it is, and so perform those actions too, setting the Start and End objects to be the same object, which fails the subsequent test and you are back to Touching=0.

  Don't break up the trigger. Use subevents to check Touching, othewise when Touching=0, you set it to 1, then immediately check on the next event if it is 1 and do that code also.

  (I disabled some actions in event 7 as they were getting in the way of showing this fix).

  Are they instances of the same Text object? Then just "foreach Text", otherwise you need a family.

  Add a subevent and check "Is tag playing". If not, then play. Use an Else on 32 to Stop the sound.

  I'd recommend you make a smaller project that displays the same problem. Currently there is just too much code to actually understand what is supposed to happen. 9 times out of 10, you find the solution yourself doing this.

  You need an instance variable that is set when clicked, then you check that it is not set when flashing.

  I'm guessing your Girl Spotted group code is continually running - remember, Wait does not block. The engine keeps running every tick, so the same action is done repeatedly. You need to disable the code while the 15 second Wait period is processing.
