Turning movable on and off

steeler0038

So i have this box in my game. I have this box set to not movable. And then i have this button in my game that when it is pressed, it turns the movable on in the box. I have a game attribute set up and i have it that when button is pressed, attribute is true. and in the box, i have it set where attribute is true, turn movable to 1. But this doesn't work. Any help?

I dont think you can adjust movable while in gameplay

You can't edit physics of actors in the game. :-(

I'm trying to do something similar..

Any chance you could post your work around please?

Create a game attribute equal to 0. So then, if you have a button to activate a box in your scene, create a rule in your button that says when pressed, change attribute = 1. And then, when you code everything in your box, make sure that every rule starts with "when attribute is = 1".

I did something like this in my game yesterday.

I set 2 attributes for the actor for its position when I tapped the actor.
Then, I constrained its positioned to where it was tapped (using the 2 attributes) in order to make it stop moving where I tapped the actor at.
