  You'll just have to loop through and compare each value. How big is the array? And what kind of searches do you need to make?

  It's hardly an array problem. Are you loading a file with AJAX?

  Shouldn't you have Fam_Minions:Stop there as well when they collide? It looks like your only telling one of them to stop.

  Kincaid No random() doesn't return an integer - you use floor() to round it to an integer.

  I was too tired to type a proper reply What I meant was that floor(random(1,4)) will only give you 1, 2, or 3 so the gblVarOpcFracc = 4 condition will never be true. Another possible issue is that you are setting the timescale to 0 and then using wait 0.5 seconds. That wait will never happen when the timescale is 0.

  What if you spawn the trail in the same way but have it move with the background?

  floor(random(1,4)) = choose(1,2,3)

  Your script is both reading and writing the file on every request. When you make a GET request to read the file you still write the contents of $_POST['data'] (which is empty) to the file afterwards.

  You need to put in an if statement to check if $_GET['data'] or $_POST['data'] is set and act accordingly.

  You can put the object into a family and then you can pick one instance of the object and one instance of the family.

  A few examples of this kind of thing from my dropbox:

  Here's an example of loading words from a file. You should be able to modify it to do what you want:

  I remember doing something like this before where I compared the mouse controlled player sprite angle with the 8dir moving angle to see if it's moving sideways or not.

  Here it is:

  You can add the text file as a project file, use AJAX to load it, and use tokenAt and tokenCount with a for loop to split it up into individual words that you can add to the list.
