  My first thought was to activate the animation with the corresponding direction arrow key.

  Your idle animation plays when pressing left and right ? That is kind of unusual, how do you move ?

  Probably 1 because 2 means you load all the graphics in one object which is bad for image memory usage. To store the loot though like in an inventory I would use an array.

  You can use a combination of 'on start of layout' and another system condition 'layoutname = '

  How is it actually triggered in the game or what sets the variable ?

  Might be an event order issue where by the time it gets to the 3rd and 4th events the timer is running. Try moving the bottom two events above the first two events, this will check if that is the problem. Then I would fix this by putting them in the same event using sub events - timer is not running, Else.

  Still not getting the design of the game, you press the enter key and a tile spawns from a specific tile ? You need to give it unique identifier like a variable value or you can use the UID since it is created in the layout before runtime, this will pick the tile you need to spawn from. So instead of pick furthest tile condition it would be pick tile where variable = 1 or where UID = 1 for example.

  How are you deciding on the original tile? You need to choose the tile that they are spawning from in a unique way then problem solved.

  The issue in the particular file you sent is because you call the function before the array is populated, the function call should be after the array load.

  However your original screenshot didn't seem like it had this issue so i didn't mention it, because you force the dialogue with a key press when the array should already be populated.

  This is implying the array is empty, check in debug view that your array is populated with the data from the array file, specifically at 1,3 I guess.
