[Suggestion] Update to Logical AND/OR

Would it be possible to update these so you could use them the following way.

Think that would be very useful, for instant to do this in my game I have to make 112 lines of code, compared to just 16 if this was possible.

Anyway a small thing but one that I think would make sense if were possible

Logical operator OR, by it's definition, returns only 0 or 1 depnding on the expressions to compare.

However, I think it could be a really nicz feature to have, a non boolean OR

Absolutely. Anything that will streamline the workflow!

I have similar request for using names of objects, so instead of making 30 condition events for, for example 30 different tiled bg's, I would just make one and pass the name of the tiled bg trough variable.

No, we cannot change how the existing operator works, firstly because it's standard in many tools and frameworks that bitwise OR works like that, and secondly it will break a great many existing projects.

I'm not sure we could even make a new operator that could work like that, and I'm not aware of any language or tool out there that does. I think it is best if you just use an OR block.

That's fair enough.

If that can help someone understand the why is it like that, the truth table of the AND , OR.

AND needs all inputs to be at 1 to return 1, otherwise 0

OR needs all inputs to be at 0 to return 0, otherwise 1

C2 comparisons operators like = ; < ; > ; <> and so on returns 0 if false and 1 if true

So you need to try :

Compare two values :

((T = 2)|(T = 1)|(T = 3)|(T = 4))

=

1

if you want some thing to happen if T is 2; 1; 3; or 4

It is not only an computer thing, a lot of devices are considered to have only to opposite states, and so logical equations exists for them too (however syntax is not the same, the OR is + and the AND is .)

One way I handle a situation like that is this:

find("|1|4|5|6|7|9|11|12|", "|"&var&"|")<>-1[/code:3an99age]

Not really sure how you would use that in a list? Can "find" go through all items in a list?

Yeah I ended up doing that, but thanks for reply.

Yeah my hope was that it was possible if written in the way I did, that C2 could somehow be made to recognize it in a way so it would just repeat testing the original variable against each value, without having to copy paste it.
