Is there a way to spawn the (Instanse) of an actor rather then the (Prototype) of it?

I've made changes on an actor that moves in the game, but I want to spawn that image as non-movable actor rather then creating a new actor with the same image.

There is no way to spawn an unlocked instance of an actor. You can make it invisible until certain conditions are met, but anything you spawn using the spawn actor command will be the prototype.

EX:
WHEN: (your condition) is (true, a number, however you want to calculate it)

THEN: self.graphics.Visible true

ELSE: self.graphics.Visible false

Edit: If that doesn't work, you can also do:

WHEN: (your condition) is (true, a number, however you want to calculate it)

THEN: self.color.Alpha = 1

ELSE: self.color.Alpha = 0

you should just make another actor
dont even bother making it invisible haha

Visible can not be changed at runtime use alpha.

Yep, hence my edit.

What I do in such a case
Rule:
when condition is true
All the rules you want it to do
Otherwise:
change self.position.x to -self.width
