In this free Clickteam Fusion 2.5 video tutorial I show you how you can use XOR in your Clickteam Fusion 2.5 games and applications instead of flags. We all know that Flags are not ‘nameable’ in Fusion 2.5 and if you have 6-7 or more flags going at once, it can cause confusion and headaches.
With this XOR method, you can now use Alterable and Global Values to store Boolean values (aka Flags) and you can name them!
It’s been a well-known fact since the early 2000s that you cannot name flags. This hasn’t been too much of an issue and it still isn’t, until your game or app project starts becoming huge and then you start forgetting which flag does what and because you cannot rename flags, it makes the job 100x harder.
Using the XOR method in your Clickteam Fusion 2.5 developments means that you can now use a Global or Alterable Value of an object as a flag and name it to whatever you want!

Nice trick! I didn’t realize it can be so simplified!
Love this tip!
Never thought of using XOR as an alternative to Flags.
Thanks for this Danny 🙂
Thanks Tisnart. I’m very fond of this trick and I’m keen for more people to use it…
