I have these events:
Always
-Spread in Value A of 'object'
Every 1 seconds
-Create 'object'
The problem is that the newest created object gets 0 as his value A. I want the object that is already created to have 0.
Oh sweet mary.

No, that's not what the problem is.
-First an object is created, is ValA is 0.
-Another instance of that object is created, now that ValA is 0, and the already existing object gets 1.
-Another instance is created, now he gets 0 in his ValA.
See?
Oh sweet mary.

Instead of using spread values you will need to use your own system.
When you create an object set it's Alt Val A to the number of objects. This will work as long as objects are not destroyed. If you need to destroy objects then you should have a counter with has the max number of objects that ever occured. eg:
> Create Object
> Set Value A to "Stored Number"
> Add 1 to "Stored Number"

When you use spread value in an alterable value, the numbers are distributed from newest to oldest. So when you create a new object, it gets zero, and the second newest one gets one, etc.

If you want the spread values to be reversed, just do something like this:
-Spread value 0 in Value A ("Object")
-Set Value A ("Object") to NObjects ("Object") - Value A ("Object")
You subtract the value you get from spread value from the total number of objects, thereby reversing the values.
'Course, using this exactly will have your first object with the value 1, but if you want a 0 instead you can simply subtract 1 from the second equation. Or spread the value 1 in the first place.
Go Moon!
