List Utils (Sorter, Duplicate Remover, and 2D Arrays)

It doesn't seem to work. I get this message when I try to convert a game list into a 2D list

"Events for 'TextBox3' (57) -  Invalid assign"

Can anybody help me out on this?

Hmm, I never considered this to be used with Game Attribute Lists. I'll look into it tomorrow and see if I can make them compatible.

3d arrays next yes? 4d? brain twisting 5d?

I jest, great work sir .

Thanks. 3D,  4D, 5D and any other dimensional arrays are possible. I would like to add that kind of functionality but there is currently no good way to expose it in Stencyl.

Thanks for all your effort Dom818 it's really appreciated!

Got an error with the 2D array.

I populate the array with zeroes (as number) and letters "x" (as text). And then a script loops through every item in the 2D array and if it's not equal zero (number) - removes the item. The thing is - it treats any text value as if it is a zero, so it does not remove an item with text in it.
I've also tried to check whether the item is zero as text, but had no effect.

Do I do anything wrong or is there an error on the extension's side?

Would be grateful for assistance.

My issue (read above) was solved, so if you happen to come across the same thing, here's an explanation and a workaround from Dom:
"It seems the problem comes from how Haxe, the language behind Stencyl, returns values from the list. It seems to return everything as text; when you compare this to a number, in your case 0, it also casts the string to a number, by default 0. This makes it always return true. To solve this, simply wrap the 0 in an "as text" block."

Cheers!

Hi, I might be missing something, but the sort list block seems to only order by the first digit, i.e.. 2 is considered to be higher than 12.

log shows  a list of lists before and after sorting (2, 12, 3 sorted highest to lowest becomes 3,2,12)

is this an openFL thing? is the block not for v3?

That is standard computer behavior. Each character in a string is compared and then sorted. If you want to sort a "12" lower in a list than a "2" you need to use values like "02" instead.
