Hey everyone, I just found out how to make one actor be destroy by touching on another actor now I trying to being that actor back.
This is what Im looking for .

actor A is on the left side and actor B is on the right side. I touch actor A and that will make actor B disappear then I touch on actor A again and actor B comes back in the same spot on the right side. How do I do this?

make a game attribute called toggleObject or whatever you want to call it.

In actor A have when touch is pressed:
- change attribute toggleObject to (toggleObject+1)%2

In actor B have a rule when attribute toggleObject =1
- change attribute self color alpha to 0

Then in the otherwise section of that rule have a change attribute and change self color alpha to 1

create an invisible actor under actor B
under actor A's behaviors create a rule 'when touch is pressed, spawn actor B'

@jobei I believe you created your "toggleObject" attribute as a boolean type. You need to create it as an integer type.

Hey John im having some trouble on the actor B part. When I make the attribute and put "toggleObject into the box it turn the = 1sign into a true or false box.


on my computer it say "if toggleObject is true" i know this is messing up the code
