Are these different objects, or one object with 24 instances?

Use System -> Pick random.

If different objects, add them to a family, use Pick random ObjectsFamily.

Add this action to the third event on your screenshot:

Browser Log GreenGroundShake.ShakeTheGroundScale & " : " & LayerScale("Player")

Open browser console and you should be able to see the value of ShakeTheGroundScale and the actual layer scale. Maybe this will give you an idea what's wrong.

I believe I understand the question. See this demo, there are two methods you can use, I prefer the second one:

This is what I found in google:

metamodpro.com/browser-language-codes
Also, you only need the first two letters of the language code. For example:

left(Browser.Language,2) = "fr"

You need to decide if all these sprites will be separate objects, or if it can be a single sprite object with multiple animations/frames.

If you need to spawn many different objects without duplicates, you can name them like Obj1,Obj2,Obj3... and use "System Create by name" action:
Repeat 20 times : Create by name "Obj"&loopindex at (random(1920), random(1080))

If this will be a single sprite - create this sprite, and then set a frame.

Repeat 20 times : Create Sprite at (random(1920), random(1080)) : Set Spirte animation frame to loopindex

Instead of random position you can use invisible "spawner" sprites - then when creating a new object, pick a random unoccupied spawner.

jjc001 Creating a family instance will pick a random family member, but this method may produce duplicates. And OP said he needs each sprite to be created only once.

Yeah, so basically rays are cast at angles +1,-2,+3,-4...-60, or -1,+2,-3,+4...+60. This is to decrease the number of collision checks and to randomize turn direction. I don't know if you've noticed, but I also decreased LOS angle, otherwise all boids would form a single flock after a few seconds.

As for the movement, I think Bullet is pretty lightweight. If you move boids with events, I doubt there will be much improvement in performance.

how could I get it to be put to all the texts of the project?

You can add all text objects into a family. And then do "TextFamily On Created -> TextFamily set web font"

I played a little with your project, check it out:

Not sure if this works better or worse, but maybe you can use some of my ideas.

Something like this:

For "n" from 1 to len(text)
 Set textMirrored to textMirrored & mid(text, len(text)-loopindex, 1)
