  You can use commends like: set CSS style "border-style" to "none", but what is the command to disable text highlighting? Didn't really find anything useful while I tried to search it. I tried "selection-style" to "none", but that doesn't work...

  Moving the box off screen is one option, but kind of clunky..

  I'm making the text box text be displayed by a spritefont and will probably make some nice background effects for it. I can set the text box background and text invisible. But I haven't found out how to remove the selection box selection highlighting, meaning the text box text can be highlighted with the cursor, making it become annoyingly visible. This is different from the highlighted borders of the text box that become visible when you select the text box, I know how to disable that effect.

  Is there a way to remove this feature from the text box or maybe make the effect invisible? Thanks in advance.

  Maybe run the conditions combined with at the start of the level condition, so it gets triggered only once. Now you have set it up in a way that the conditions get run every tick.

  I would do it like this:

  Move all the items to a family and give a variable or maybe a boolean called "selected" to the family.

  Make an event that sets the boolean true if the item is selected.

  Make an event that moves the player to the next level when all the desired items have their selected boolean set true.

  This sounds really basic. What part exactly are you finding hard to do.

  It is definitely possible and shouldn't be hard to make either.

  The easiest way to do this that I can think of is using the advanced random plugin and have all the possible list items either in an array or dictionary.

  This tutorial should show you what you need:

  Do you mean the edges of the viewport itself?

  I can probably currently answer you best here :)

  Actually you would have to do it round(random(-0.49, 3.49)), but I think my way is more intuitive. Check out the example I uploaded.

  Or maybe it would look better to spawn them around the object in a circle?

  Here's an improved example:

  I think int(random(0,3.99) is just fine. Or if you want to be really OCD about it change it to int(random(0,3.99999...) :) The "distribution" doesn't really become any more accurate if you use a bigger spread like 0 - 100.

  Anyhow, here is an example file how to do it.

  One problem here is that that function doesn't actually equally distribute numbers between 0 and 3. 0 and 3 are actually half as likely to be chosen as 1 and 2 (for example 0 gets chose if random gives numbers between 0 - 0.499.., 1 gets chosen between 0.5 - 1.499.. (twice the probability). If you want equal distribution you could change it to for example int(random(0,3.99).

  It would be easier to get a closer look if you upload the project thou.
