ArrayMaker sort alphabetically by name[SOLVED]

[escpodgames]

Hi,

I need to sort an array list alphabetically, the Array list sort action only works with strings from what I can tell.

On game startup I add a bunch of positions to an array, these positions are taken from existing game object. Everything works as expected except the order of the positions eg,
position_03
position_01
position_04
position_02

I did found an old thread - http://hutonggames.com/playmakerforum/index.php?topic=2381.0

Any word on this jean?

Hi,

 I am not sure what to do cause I can't seem to find a working sample on the net to give me some hints as how to do it.

 I would suggest you save the gameObjects names and then sort them. Would that not work?

bye,

I think ill just manually add the positions to the array, not ideal but at least it will work.

Thanks anyways Jean

Hi,

 is it something you don't have to do at run time?

It doesn't have to be done at runtime but would make it a lot easier as each level would have a different amount of items in the array.
