I had already tried that it is doesn't work.

The issue with it is that it doesn't compare all the elements.

As long as one element matches, it thinks they all do.

I'm trying to compare multiple entries in 2 different arrays.

I'm able to do it but only if I compare each entry individually, this isn't a problem when I'm just comparing a few entries. However, this is going to be for a larger project so I need a better way of doing it.

My current way is like this:

Each element of the user array is compared against the answer array, but only one by one. I've tried doing it in a for loop, but this then doesn't to work it only looks at the last element.

a sample of the project is here:

dropbox.com/s/wbr2inpk196i0j4/array.capx

surely there must be a more elegant way of doing this... been trying all day and it's driving me mad!!

thanks for any help

Interesting after doing a lot more testing I've found that if I use 640 x 360 as the resolution then text doesn't seem to scale cleanly in Firefox, the text appears jagged, whereas if using 1920 x 1080 its fine (not seen any issues yet with downscaling).

Most be an issue with how Firefox renders text as none of the other browsers (on desktop or mobile) seems to have this issue.

I'm going to give 1280 x 720 a try and see if/what issue that throws up.

thanks both of you for your replies.

I'm using "High quality" for my Fullscreen scaling, and I'm only ever using 10 or so sprites (the stuff I'm creating is mainly text based).

I've already started creating a far bit of content with a resolution of 640 x 360, so if there isn't really that big of an issue I'll keep going with it.

Just a quick question.

Is there any benefit in building a game in a resolution of 1920 x 1080 over 640 x 360?

I'm using high res graphics and am scaling when in browser. I've tried prototypes in both resolutions and there appears to be no difference in quality or performance.

If I were to build in 640 x 360, would I run into any problems I'm unaware of?

After much reading found the answer here in the 'Pasting Data in to Expressions' section.

maybe I'm over complicating it or not seeing what I'm supposed to be doing

I've tried the pin behaviour but I can't see how to make it work when I'm using multiple instances of the same object.

breaking it down to a very basic example, on the layout I have

Sprite_A, Sprite_B, Sprite_C, Sprite_D combined into a family called SpriteFamily

then a text box called TextBox that I've duplicated 6 times

Sprite_A and Sprite_B need to have 2 TextBox pinned to it and Sprite_C and Sprite_D need to have 1 TextBox pinned to it

other than manually pinning each one line by line I can't see a way of doing this with loops or anything else. doing it manually is fine for this example but eventually I need to have 10+ different elements attached to each sprite.

Ah, might be a problem as other than the 1 background sprite all the rest are instances (forgot to mention that)

Ah, I see!

I didn't realize that putting in the condition would then let if affect the action.

Works perfectly, thanks!
