Hey, im trying to check if a number is already in a (1d)array but i dont know how i can do this.....

and sorry for my bad english....

You could use a for loop to go through the array and then set a variable if it finds the number you are looking for.

Alternatively, you could use a ds_list instead of an array. ds_lists have a built in function to find values in them and are otherwise very much like arrays.
