Thank you ... I just happened to have this question.

Do you still need help on this problem? If so, I think I have an answer.

Yay!

Please check the edited capx I put here:

> You should check sprites object in projects tree, put_bomb just a small sprite to set where the mines will be placed. There are some miss calculation in your capx.

> First based on your sprite size, offset value should be set as 50 not 25. Then evaluating distance retrieved from pythagoras equation: ceil(sqrt(50^2+50^2)) will result 71.

It all went okay and fast.

I just redownloaded it and played it in debug, and it runs quickly, but still has errors:

This image has only been cropped, and the code was not altered in any way. I ran the program again, with some random instances having an incorrect inst. var.

The program works great, but there are a few kinks.

There is an action that changes the sprite's frame to the instance variable, and when it is run I get this.

The problems are circled here:

The problem seems very random... Maybe construct 2 is conscious.

(You may need to zoom to 50%-33% to view the whole image. Also, the program runs very slowly. Is it the amount of objects on screen? No, I attempted to make the grid smaller (3 by 3) and it still has lag.)

I am having trouble discerning what the put_bomb sprite does, and how it is found. I have made my own test to try to replicate the action, but it is not working.

Can you tell what is going wrong?

Thank you very much! You will be put under the "special thanks" part of my credits (currently only 4 in the entire credits!)

This has been troubling me for a while...

I have a bunch of sprites (A) in a tile formation (20*20 sprites for a total of 400) and I want each instance of this object to count how many sprites (A) are around it, then set an instance variable (A) as that number.

Thank you so much!

Would you like to beta-test my game (when available, looking at 1-2 weeks)?

It is a multiplayer version of

 Conway's Game Of Life [/code:z7y7n4i5] ([url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_Game_of_Life]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_Game_of_Life[/url])

You don't have to, but the choice is yours. Thank you again.

*EDIT*
In the program that you sent me, what if I wanted the touched object to count how many shapes are around it? Is it a simple addition, or is the code all wrong?

Could you please give me a screenshot of [quote:1wb53r53]

System |Pick instance of objectX at (l_x+loopindex("x")*l_w&,&l_y+loopindex("y")*l_h)[/code:1wb53r53]
 (Is it nth instance, or all instance, or etc?)

I think I have the wrong Pick Instance for this...  Also it won't let me insert a comma, so I stopped. (It's surrounded by &'s.)

I understand everything else, and you will be listed in "special thanks" when my program is done. (with the other person who commented on this post)

Here's what I have so far: 
[img="http://i65.tinypic.com/16ae2xc.png"]

The tiles [u]are[/u] objects (sprites).

This is great, but the object (a) only "looks" at the instance variables of objects (all) that are to the side of it. I also need objectA to "look" at the inst. var. of objects (all) on its diagonals...

This has straightened me out a lot. Thank you.

I want each object (they are sprites in a tile formation) to find the instance variable of another object (next to it) and act according to the value. How would I do this ?(a great example would be how a tile in minesweeper knows if it has a mine next to it.)
