Hello @‌iceheero

Welcome to GSC and the Forums.

That's straightforward enough: make a boolean attribute, let's call it Switch.

Now in front of any Rules for the warrior actor, add

When Switch is false

This way, any other buttons pressed with movement rules, etc, will effect this actor only.

Similarly, in front of any rules you have already for your mage actor, add

When Switch is true

in front of all existing rules for it.

Now in your button to change control, put:

Rule: When touch is pressed
Rule (nested in the above rule) : When Switch is false
Change Attribute Switch to true
Change Image Mage
Otherwise
Change Attribute Switch to false
Change Image Warrior

Thanks for your feedback

I have been trying to work it out for the pass 1 hr and tried the following method and it works but O am kind of stuck now.

What i have done is

creat an interger attribute (switch) in game 1, 2, 3, 4 as job 1, 2, 3, 4

crt 4 button job1, job2, job3, job4, when press each button (Switch change to regard number)

So here is what i have done so far.

starting actor set as job1

when I press job2 button job 1 actor destory and spawn job2 actor. it works only indivdule or say only once.

I tried to press job 1, 3, 4 after 1st change and it doesnt make any changes.

again appreciate for your help

Hi, right, I think I get what you're after...

So make your 4 actors to be spawned in the Inspector, each with a different colour, etc, I guess.

In the rules of the first one, put:

Rule: When Attribute Job ≠ 1
Destroy

and in the 2nd:

Rule: When Attribute Job ≠ 2
Destroy

etc. for 3 and 4

In your button 1, you should have something like:

Rule: When Touch is pressed
Change Attribute Job to 1
Spawn Actor Actor 1 pos 100x 300 y -- example coordinates

In your button 2:

Rule: When Touch is pressed
Change Attribute Job to 2
Spawn Actor Actor 1 pos 200x 300 y -- example coordinates

etc. for the other two buttons.

The "bit different" is probably the bit that makes sure it works for you this time!

Glad it helped.

yes i crt 4 jobs with unique job number in each jobs.
So anytime I press job1 it checks the character's job number.
if switch number = job2 number
destory
spawn job2 actor

so on for job 2 , 3 .

and so on for button 2,3,4

and looks like it works at mean time.

anyway thanks for your help and it helps
