How to assign a certain number of objects a value.

At the start of the layout, 20 objects of Enemy are created (one by one with a for loop). I wish there was a way to create the object with a constructor and individually set the variables. I want 10 of the Enemies instance variables "type" to be 0, 5 to be 1, and 5 to be 2.

in java you could simply do this:

enemy;

for(int a=0;a<=19;a++){

enemy = new Enemy();

if(a<10){

enemy.type=0;

}else if(a<15){

enemy.type=1;

}else{

enemy.type=2;

}

}

However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do this without setting "type" to 0 1 or 2 for ALL Enemies.

In loops you can use loopindex expression. If loopindex<10, set type to 0, etc.

Or do the same with ternary operator:

Enemy Set type to (loopindex<10 ? 0 : loopindex<15 ? 1 : 2)

In loops you can use loopindex expression. If loopindex<10, set type to 0, etc.

Or do the same with ternary operator:

Enemy Set type to (loopindex<10 ? 0 : loopindex<15 ? 1 : 2)

Thank you that is very helpful. Especially, I had no clue you could use the

(loopindex<10 ? 0 : loopindex<15 ? 1 : 2)

syntax. Is there anywhere that goes more in-depth on expressions like that you can use in places like that?

Every object in Construct has lots of expressions, when editing any event click "Find expressions" link to view them, it's extremely useful.
