place checking question

[Troodon]

Hi,
How can one actor check if there is another actor in one place. (oh no, I don't know how to explain it!)
I mean that if for example there is that X & 0 game where you must try to have 4 X or 4 0 in the same line. How can I make the program check if there is 4 X's in the same line or in the same colum etc? I hope somebody catched what I mean.

You can use the getactor function to test

What's getactor and how it works?

Look at:

I looked from documentation but I didn't understand how could it help me.

The getactor funcion will returns the actor in the given position.
So, you can test if in the position (0, 0), (0, 10)... has the actor X or 0

Thanks, but can I check also if there is 4 X's or 0's in the same line?

You need check the places and use a variable to count!

Ok. Thank you!
