  You can either use a dictionary or array to store values for multiple items. If you want each item to have its own multiplier I'd use an array, otherwise a dictionary is fine.

  Here's an example showing both:

  I've rounded the value to avoid decimals - you can remove the "round" expression if you'd prefer them.

  It looks related to this known issue with bullet behaviour bouncing:

  There's a response here from Ashley in the bug report:

  I tried to make the reflection working from all angles, not just from the left. But I couldn't work out the math and gave up. Maybe someone else could fix it.

  You just need to add a "trigger once when true" condition after "Virus total = 0"; it was firing every tick.

  Ah, a help request related to one of my favourite games - how could I resist? :-)

  Here's my attempt:

  dropbox.com/s/r9r3moemj140ymf/theWitness.c3p

  The line is drawn on the grid, allows backtracking and is blocked by itself and gaps. I've not worked out how to manoeuvre the cursor into the end spot yet - I'll give it some more thought and get back to you.

  You can use the System>General>Reset Persisted Objects action to restore the coins.

  Here's an example C2 project - it should work fine in C3:

  dropbox.com/s/z6gbnqa22z7x5uy/ajaxArray.capx

  You can check out the json structure under the file folder in the project bar. As piranha305 mentions, you need a specific json format in order to load it into an array.

  EDIT: Sorry piranha305 - posted my reply without checking for any updates :-)

  In C3, instead of using the On "wave" completed condition, you can add a "wait for previous actions" action under the AJAX request action and then Load ar_HelliWave from AJAX.LastData straight after that.

  Here's an example using an AJAX + array that lets you set any number of correct answers:

  dropbox.com/s/5inhie14yi7rolr/quizTemplate.c3p

  Both the questions and answers are shuffled using permutation tables.

  I've added comments throughout the event sheet to explain how it works.

  Using a 3D array to store the answers may work for you:

  Width = question no.

  Height = answers

  Depth = correct/incorrect

  You can transfer the current question's answers to a separate 2D array if you want to shuffle them before displaying.

  I put together a demo that will fill an ellipse of tiles around a point, it should work better than the example I gave above:

  You could try this:

  Add a variable n, where n is equal to the max distance in the x or y direction that you want to change; in your example it would be 2.

  For "i" from -n to n

  For "j" from -n to n

  ->If loopindex("i") + loopindex("j") <= n, Set value at Xspawn+loopindex("i"),Yspawn+loopindex("j") to 1

  Set value at (Xspawn,Yspawn) to 16
