Moveable when collide, immovable when not colliding with anything?

rickyniko

Hi, is there a way to make an actor(1) moveable when it is colliding with actor(2), and then switch to immovable once its not touching actor(2)?

To do that, you would place a Rule in Actor 1, like this:

Rule
When all conditions are valid:
Overlaps or collides with Actor of type Actor 2
-----[place movement code here]
otherwise
-----[place stop movement code here]

That's the basic premise...

thanks for the response, but, in this game, you move around actor 2, and push actor 1's around to get through the maze, so you dont actually control actor 1 with any buttons, its moved around by pushing it with actor 2, know what i mean?

You can try something like this, in Actor 1:

Rule
When all conditions are valid:
Overlaps or collides with Actor of type Actor 2
-----[nothing goes here]
otherwise
-----Change Attribute: self.Motion.Linear.X to: 0
-----Change Attribute: self.Motion.Linear.Y to: 0
