Random text to enemies

[Polisdead]

Hello everyone!

I’m making a top-down typing game where enemies move toward the player, and you must type their assigned word to destroy them.

I want to:
Give each enemy a random word from a list
Prevent the same word from appearing twice until all words have been used
Refill the word list when all words are used

I’m using global variables to store words and trying to remove words from the list after they are used, but I’m having trouble making it work properly.

Could anyone show me a step-by-step event sheet tutorial or share an example project

First, install the array tools extension. Then make sure the words are stored in an array, and create another array called “UsedWords”.

@Polisdead

Give each enemy a random word from a list
Prevent the same word from appearing twice until all words have been used

• Use the Array Tools to shuffle the array of words.
• Use the Array Tools to Shift from the array into a text variable.
• Assign the word in the text variable to the enemy.
• Add the word in the text variable to the “UsedWords” array.
  
  

@Polisdead

Refill the word list when all words are used

• Use Array Tools to append all variables from “UsedWords” array to the word array.
• Clear children from “UsedWords” array.
