Saving/Loading Canvas Actors

[Astro Lemur]

How do you (if its possible) save a canvas actor with stuff on it so it can be loaded later, and what script function loads it?

Well, you can't save it using the UI but you can play with coordinates (x and y value) in script editor.
So when you create the canvas actor to a place, it creates the objects defined in script editor.
I can be more specific if you need help.

Could you be more specific, please?

Put in the create actor event of your canvas actor -> script editor ->

CreateActor("Actor1", "actor1animation", "(none)", "(none)", 245, -155, false);
CreateActor("Actor2", "actor2animation", "(none)", "(none)", 114, 16, false);
CreateActor("Actor3", "actor3animation", "(none)", "(none)", 200, 16, false);
etc etc

Then just create the canvas actor when needed.
For example you want to load the canvas actor when the player collide with target:

player -> collision any side of target -> create actor -> canvas
