  • Thank you so much for your help and reply. I am going to try this out and report back.

  • I would try what you described in the original post checking x-1 and x+1 for a matching type that's why I wanted to see what you tried and isn't working. Also try testing it with delays so you know everything is working as it should. Also rather than a for each block, a for each ordered by something may work better for tracking which block is being checked. Did you check that the array looks correct and as expected btw?

    Here is what the function did, as it would load the UIDs into another array if they lined up in 3 with a matching color. Then I would destroy those blocks based on their UIDs. I was getting it to load the UIDs into the "horizontalmatch" array but not correctly.

    Thank you again and sorry for the confusion.

    If the function has nothing in it then can confirm this is why it's not working

    What i meant is that everything I try has not worked. So at this point the function is empty and does not work. I am asking for advice for what I should put in the function to make it work based on what i put in my original post.

  • Maybe this could help you: construct.net/en/forum/construct-3/your-construct-creations-9/match3-template-98-events-186335

    Thank you so much, I will take a look.

  • It's interesting that you shared a screenshot of the part that works and not of the function that doesn't work.

    The function doesn't work, and has nothing because I'm not sure if I should us a function. Thanks for the reply though.

  • I have been struggling with making an array to check for matches and then destroy those matching colors that are next to each other. Basically, how would I check each cell of my array to look for a match 3 based on color. In the screenshot below you can see how the block comes down the board and then uses boardarray to store its color based on its location in sheet 0. Then on sheet 1 it stores it UID, which could be used to destroy the matches when they are matching.

    The issue I have is that I cannot figure out an check the array for 3 cells that match next to each other then destroy those 3. I did try checking when the block stopped and looked at x-1 and x+1 to see if the colors next to it matched but it never worked right.

    Thank you so much in advance for any help!

  • Thank you for the reply. We are online because they wouldn't be able to get to the construct site to load the editor without being online. It must be a browser issue or an issue with our network settings.

  • About 8 out of 30 of my students are having a "Login Unavailable" issue and getting the error shown in the image below. We are running Chrome Version 111.0.5563.65 and obviously have internet connection. I have tried clear the cache all that stuff. They can log into the main site but once in the editor they get the error when trying to log in again. Anyone have any ideas?

  • Hello,

    Why is the "Launch Construct 3" button gone from the website after you log in. It use to be right next to "Store" and now its gone. My class uses Chrome Version 111.0.5563.65 and we are launching from the main construct.net site. As a work around we go through the guided tour link and click cancel once it loads.

    Thanks all!
