Problem w/ referencing one of two same objects.

I have a situation where I am referencing the same object twice in an event and action (using a family) and I only want to reference a single one of the objects, not all of them

In this case, the code is "If object is overlapping object and object.x is less than object.x"

create a family with only object objects , and do

If object is overlapping family1

But is there a chance to do it without families?

You could also use 'Pick Nth'. 'Pick instance 0' will pick the first instance involved in the collision, and 'Pick instance 1' will pick the second.

Can you "Pick Nth" to pick the last instance?

I'm having a similar problem, I'm trying to select a specific overlapping sprite, but it defaults to selecting the sprite with the lowest UID (or appears to), while I want the one with the highest UID. If I use "Pick Nth" with N = 0, I get the card with lowest UID, N=1 gives me the card with 2nd lowest UID etc... but I want the card with the highest UID, and the number of cards picked isn't set.

Robsta Do N=Object.PickedCount - 1

Works great, thanks
