    In all seriousness, great tutorial. I never did get to learn all the entity discovery functions, and it helped a bit.

    your explode would explode the spaces too correct? so it would be
    "this "
    " is "
    "a "
    "test

    By cursed I mean, for me, It is the most difficult part of expression 2. This is because It has a tendency to spaz out. Usually, it does not like to be rotated 90 degs, you have got to make it 88 degs to stop it from spazzing. I don't know, maybe I am not experienced enough in it.

    I'm glad to hear that my Tutorial was helpful to you other people

    Im still going to add stuff to the tutorial. If you have anything you are confused about Post it here and I may add it.

    No, Since I put quotes around the , all that the string will be broken up by is the comma

    EXACTLY!

    your exploding the , in this

    Array = "This , Is , A , Test":explode(",")

    so therefore
    [highlight=e2]
    1.
    Array:string(1) = "This "
    2.
    Array:string(2) = " Is "
    3.
    Array:string(3) = " A "
    4.
    Array:string(4) = " Test"[/highlight]

    when you used
    [highlight=e2]
    1.
    Array:string(1) = "This"
    2.
    Array:string(2) = "Is"
    3.
    Array:string(3) = "A"
    4.
    Array:string(4) = "Test"[/highlight]

    look at the spaces.

    applyForce((V*25 - entity():vel()) * entity():mass())
    I agree with chinoto's formula there, its flawless. it should be the standard for applyForce()
