Disable getactor?

Postby DilloDude » Wed Apr 12, 2006 6:18 am

Does someone know how I can disable getactor on a certain actor? I want to find the actor at a certain place, but I have a menu that will be opened and I don't want it's name to be returned.

when you make the menus, make a list of the names of the neu actors, and then when you use get actor, check the getactor return against the list.

But is there a way I can get it to return the actor underneath?

Was a solution ever found to this?

I also need to make certain actors "invisible" to the getactor function.

You can create an actor variable (like enableGetActor) and test it in the returned actor.

you may need a guard now *stares at gogo* and probably a restraining order
