  • Hey there! Thanks for taking your time!

    Basically i have a sprite with all Animations with the same name, just ending with different numbers, such as 0,1,2 etc.

    Now in event i did ''if Animation is playing Run & random(1,3)"

    But that only = true sometimes. The Animations number go past 3, but i wanna only check if 1-3 in this event. Any way to do that?

  • I don't think the last section explanation and question make much sense, can you rephrase?

    Animation names are Run1, Run2, Run3, Run4 and Run5.

    I want that event 'IF Run & 1 or 2 or 3 is playing then execute X.

    Execute only run 1-3, not the others.

    I thought there is simpler way than making 3 seperate events for

    'if sprite is playing Run animation'

    'if frame = 1'

    - then repeat with frame 2 and then frame 3. I thought it could all be in 1 sentence.

  • If you are planning on applying logic based on each frame of animation then they will be one event but the if frame=1, if frame=2, if frame=3 will be sub events because you need to add your actions to it.

    This works, but might not be suitable to your game logic?

    Hey there! That is right, instead of random 1-3 i want a definitely 1-3, aslong as the number is between 1 and 3.

    Frame 1 and 2 and 3 = same outcome. So instead of random 1-3 i want a definitely 1-3. Get it?
