How not to overlap an actor with another?

fruitjuiceproductions.mb

Hi,

Just wondering how can i drag an actor during the game play, to the scene, without overlaping with another existing actor.

In the game, there are existing actors in different places, and a ball that has to arrive to the finish area.

You can drag and move the play changer actors but i dont want them to overlap with the existing walls.

So, the only thing that i need is to turn off overlap, any ideas?

Thanks!!!

I think you can use a collision.

Actor 1 collides with actor 2 and does not overlap

Hi @UltraLionBlu

but, my question is: How can i create a rule to set off overlap?

bob loblaw

you mean like it starts in a menu, and until it’s dragged into position/dropped, there are no collisions?

I'm not 100% sure this is what you're looking for, but in the demo attached you can drag the little square around and will collide with and NOT pass through the large square. Hope it helps.
