(
    -- create 6 Spheres
    for i = 1 to 6 do
    (
        Sphere radius:5 pos[i*10, 0, 0]
    )

    -- select first available from Sphere01 to Sphere06
    for i = 1 to 6 do
    (
        local oSphere = execute("$Sphere0" + (i as String))

        if (isValidNode oSphere) do
        (
            select oSphere
            exit
        )
    )
)
