  On the Events tab (top of window) there is an "Add Include" button. You use that.

  EncryptedCow's method also works.

  There is a subtle difference though. This method only runs on every second since the game began. For one second you don't really notice anything, but if the delay was longer, say 10 seconds, the first run can take anywhere from 0 to 10 seconds to start.

  Note: You don't need/want the WHILE in your code.

  Wait causes many people grief until they get it. Wait does NOT stop the game from progressing. What happens is that, to the side, in parallel, there is a wait and then any actions/sub-events immediately FOLLOWING the wait action are performed.

  Your code, as is, is going to continually loop in the WHILE event because of this, but the two MogweiNumber sub-events will occur after one second (with the Wait turned on again that is).

  Hopefully this is enough to let you rethink your wait code.

  Family variables actually are unique to the instance.

  sample (click on each sprite)

  I don't believe families can have sub-families.

  This sounds like a job for the Boids plugin.

  You could also use >=1 AND <=6 in this case.

  Not sure of the etiquette for changing someone else's plugin, but here's v1.2 with the ability to change the StartValue.

  I'm guessing you are randomly picking the same white cake more than once. You need to add some logic to not repick a white one.

  C2 doesn't support nested-mixed-booleans. Either use local variables for the two AND conditions, and then do an OR, or in this case, both are checking CONDITION1, so just check that first, then add a sub-event for the OR check.

  If Condition 1

  -> if Condition 2 OR Condition 3

  ---->action

  Just change .ZIP to .CAPX
