  Move "Button on clicked" condition to event 2. Otherwise this event is running on every tick, sending data to the spreadsheet 60 times per second.

  .

  I don't know why there is an error, try to re-create the script again, following each step from the tutorial closely. It's important to publish the script when you make any changes in it, and select "version=New" every time you do it.

  There are many things wrong on your screenshots.

  First, you don't need counters like animal_pos, use loopindex expression instead.

  Why do you have 2 delimiters in the text file - "|" and ";"? You can remove one. Also, I believe most of the issues with sorting and displaying data are caused by invisible characters - line breaks and spaces. You need to use trim() expression. So, if you remove "|" characters, your code should look like this:

  For "n" from 0 to tokencount(AJAX.LastData, ";")-1
   Array set value at loopindex to trim(tokenat(AJAX.LastData, loopindex, ";"))
  

  Finally, it would be easier to load a JSON file directly into the array. Right-click on Files, choose "Add -> Array". Then you will be able to load this file using a single "Array Set from JSON" action.

  The addon "Event trigger" is using a deprecated feature, which has been removed from Construct. You can't use this addon and you will not be able to open the project unless you remove the addon from the project files.

  If you can open the project in Construct 2, remove the addon there.

  Did you set preview browser to NWjs in the project properties? Start the preview and if it shows black screen, press F12 and check if there are any errors in the console log.

  Instance and global variables serve different purposes. Asking which one is better is like asking if dogs are better than horses.

  Maybe it has nothing to do with your situation, but I had an issue in my game on iPhone when after playing a short sound, all other sounds stopped working.

  Make sure you don't have very short sounds (0.1s or shorter). There is a bug in IOS, when audio stops working if you try to play such sound.

  Here is a simple way to shuffle a deck of cards:

  

  Demo

  If you need to save the order in an instance variable, you can then do "For each Card order by Card.ZIndex -> Card set Order to loopindex"

  Necroposting doesn't seem like a good idea to me. Most of those questions are not relevant anymore to people who asked them. And all these old posts will be littering the first page..

  I suggest making tutorials, it's a great way to help the Construct community!

  You can load images into a sprite in runtime, but you will need to create this sprite and add a bunch of empty frames into it in the editor.

  Then in runtime you load a new image into every animation frame, set animation speed and you get yourself an animation.

  No it doesn't

  Why don't you just try it?

  (b=0) will invert the value of b. If (b=0), the result will be 1, if (b=1), the result will be 0.

  WackyToaster's method also works, but mine is four characters shorter :)
