Of course it does say so. You would have to "or" the comparisons itself. So that you have 4 comparisons in that event that are or'd. With CC you would do

Block.AnimationName = "block1"

OR

Block.AnimationName = "block3"

OR

Block.AnimationName = "block13"

OR

Block.AnimationName = "block14"

and every line is one condition (4x Comparison, 3x OR). I guess then it isn't possible to "or" conditions in C2? But in the manual it is described as if possible:

http://www.scirra.com/manual/78/expressions/page-1

Maybe there is "evaluate" as a system condition?

EDIT: In general, remember that any logical operator just compares to boolean values (TRUE or FALSE) and nothing else. Those values may be replaced by expressions/conditions that result to either TRUE or FALSE (like "if a is greater b"), but it needs to be something that results in a boolean value.

There's no OR or EVALUATE condition as I've just checked, But I guess I'll just wait for Ashley and Tom to release 74 with the fixes OR thing for this: Click Here!

It's a logical operator. You can't compare against a collection of logical or'd strings. I don't use C2, so I can't say if this is doable with the event system, but the correct way to get what you want would be:

Block.AnimationName = "block1" | Block.AnimationName = "block3" | Block.AnimationName = "block13" | Block.AnimationName = "block14"

This will result to true, if Block.AnimationName equals one of the four strings.

I tried that one and it says:

dcrew: You should take a look at the custom OR plugin.

While this plugin is great, it only seems to handle 2 different conditions, I want block1 OR block3 OR block 14 OR block 15, This won't exactly work for me.

Oops, that's a bug - fixed for next build - but see my other thread where the OR operator is not doing what you want it to.

Omg Yay!! Please tell me this will be released soon, I want to work on my game. I don't mind if I have to wait though.

The OR operator doesn't do what you've assumed it to. It's a logical OR which returns either true or false. An empty string counts as false and other strings count as true. So "block1" | "block3" | "block13" | "block14" results in 'true', and you then do the comparison 'Block.AnimationName = true', which it probably isn't, so the event never runs.

Is there a way around this? Without having to use it with 4 events, There are reasons why and I don't want to go into too much detail until I release the game, I'm sadface :( <img src="smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

I can't continue my game until this is fixed <img src="smileys/smiley11.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> <img src="smileys/smiley34.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> <img src="smileys/smiley28.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> <img src="smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

The alternate way affects performance badly.

The | OR operator isn't working, it works fine when I just compare it to "block1" but when I try to compare to "block1" | "block3" it doesn't work!

I seem to get the Error when I add this condition:

Nevermind I read the expressions page and I think this works:

Dumb me :S

It's a suggestion, but really does bug me! (Pun Intended)

I click on my sprite to add an action and click "Which Animation of 'Sprite1' is playing?"

And then you enter one to dertermine it for example

"Sprite1:If 'hello' Animation is Playing"

well it'd be so awesome if I could add multiple parameters to determine so that the event occurs if any of the following are listed, for example:

"Sprite1:If 'hello' or 'hi' or 'hey' Animation is Playing"

OR

"Sprite1:If 'hello', 'hi', 'hey' Animation is Playing" (comma meaning "OR")

the link doesn't work.

I just tested it and it seems to work for me <img src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0" align="middle" />
