How to accidentally stop pickup up two sprites at once?

Hi all.
I'm making this game where you have to put cretin sprites at a position on the screen, however at points some sprites overlay as they walk.

How could I stop picking them both up if they are currently overlapping?

Any help would be really appreciated!!

    We used a rule for each Bump to see if its being touched for eg in the rule for Red... if touch is pressed & game.movingBlue is false game.movingRed=true otherwise game.movingRed=false

    This way even if they are overlapping you will only pick one object up.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Darren.

    Let me try and lay it out :)

    Attribute1 (can we move actor 1?)
    Attribute2 (can we move actor 2?)

    Now on actor 1:

    RULE
    If actor receives event > touch > is pressed
    AND Attribute1 = false

    Then

    Attribute2 = true

    Otherwise

    Attribute1 = true

    Have that on both actors, but change the if statement to match the correct actor :)

    Hope that helps
