  Sorry it took so long to reply. I think I understand why the text objects were not visible. I was placing them outside of the top left corner of the layout. I was placing them outside of the dashed lines that form a square. Now I have another question. Can you expand this area?

  Sorry I took so long to respond. I think I understand why my text is disappearing. When I put the text object at the top left corner of the layout I can see text objects when i run the file. But is there any way to expand that area? I'm talking about the square that has the dotted lines.

  What do you mean by "keep the default value as blank"?

  Edit: okay so what you said worked, but one of my files will not show text objects when i run the game. It's visible in the editor, but not in the game. And its on the top layer, and set to visible, i don't know what's going on. is there a know glitch that causes text objects to disappear?

  Hi. What I'm trying to do is have the player be able to collide with a weapon icon and switch weapons. The player does not keep the weapon they had they only keep the new weapon they picked up. I assume I can use Boolean variables but I don't know how. I also assume I can use an array, but again I don't know how. It works when I do player on collision with power set group to weapon activated, but for multiple weapons this method does not work.Thanks.
