Destroy just one actor out of a group of 10

edited November -1 in Working with GS (Mac)
Example:
I made an actor called actor A.
I have an area where copies of actor A randomly spawn every second.
I want to make it so when I click on a single actor A, the actor that I click on is destroyed.
I have tried a few ways to accomplish this, but when ever I click just one actor A all actor A's on the screen are destroyed.

I had an idea to make actor B spawn where I click the mouse and have a rule where actor A and B collide destroy Actor A.

I cannot seem to figure out how to spawn an actor where I click the mouse. If this is possible please let me know. If not please post a solution to my problem.

Thanks

    Okay just looked through it and put it into my game.

    I changed the touch is pressed to mouse is down.
    when I click the actor all instances of the actor are still destroyed.
    Does this only work with the touch function.
    just curious

    You need to add a condition to the Rule where your Mouse Down function is...
    To do that, click the little plus sign after the Mouse is DOWN condition so your Rule ends up like this:

    Rule
    When MOUSE is DOWN
    When MOUSE is INSIDE
    Destroy

    Right now, if you click anywhere on the screen, it will destroy everybody.
    Your just need to add that condition.

    Hope this helps!
