hi all

Can someone help me out with a loop that if i push spacebar key, will go check if object 11 exist and if it does go check object 12 and ect... until it get to an object that not exist and then create it.

if its possible it should start counting from 11 to 200 so i got the first 10 objects free, so the first object the loop will make is 11. if it not exist.


thx

I prefer to use a for loop, but that's just me

Although both of these methods work. You will find that you have created a lot more than one object. Unless you have lightning quick hands you will probably create every cube with object numbers 11-200.
To get this working as I suspect it is intended, you would need to flag the spacebar so that it only creates objects when pressed and not when held.

That will also use object id 201 when you've used up all objects from 11 to 200, and then will crash when you have no more objects free in the range.

Aye I was just giving him the basic overview code, I didn't implement a key lock or the 200 limit so it left him some room to do his bit of programming.
