Does Auto-Populate allow for OR / AND statements?

Hello

Does the Auto-Populate allow for OR statements? For example can I use...

Play Mode - Is Equal To - 2-Player Alternating OR 3-Player Alternating OR 3-Player Alternating

If so what is the correct way to include OR statement please? I the tried above but it didn't work, so perhaps I need to use , or / or \ or something else in order for it to work?

Or do I simply have to create an "equal to" for each separate condition?

Thank you

Different fields are joined via an AND statement, multiple entries of the SAME field are joined with OR. So in your example if you have "PlayMode - Equal To - 2 Player Alternating" AND "PlayMode - Equal To - 3 Player Alternating" it'd join those two with the OR you are requesting. If you added "Platform - Equal To - Arcade" however then it'd look for those Play Modes AND in the platform "Arcade".

I don't have the app up at the moment but I believe that field has a "Contains" filter type as well and so you could do a "PlayMode - Contains - Player Alternating" and only have the single line to be a bit less confusing.
