is there a way to have shared variables between families?

so basically, I have a game with 2 players and also summons

all players and summons have the same health bar and damage taking mechanic

so I have the family "allies" with "health" variable, covering all players and summons

but I also want the 2 players to heal to full health at the end of each game round. but not any summons, so I have the family "2players", but I can't assign health to them, I don't want to assign health to them I just want them to use the health bar variable that they already have

is there any way to get around having to make a separate event for each player

(this isn't the only example of this, solving this would save me dozens of events)

You would use the health variable on the two player objects. It is the same inherited variable. So instead of set family.health it is player1.health and player2.health. When you don't want to target all things in a family you just pick the single objects.

but thats exactly what I'm trying to avoid, thats why my code is cluttered. I don't want copy the same events over and over with only one thing changed

You could have a family bool like isPlayer and then apply all logic to those with isPlayer=true to group player logic.
