• A collision event could be called once as long as you don't change the option "Repeat this event" that defaults to "No".
  
• You can check whether an actor is in collision with another actor on several ways. One way is to use a function dedicated for it:
  

  Code: Select all

  if(!CollisionFree(name, x, y))
{
    // What to do if this actor collides another actor
}

  
  
• To have access to the player you are colliding with, you can use the "collide" actor variable as long as it is in a collision event.
  myactor -> Add -> Collision -> Of Actor: "Any Actor" -> Edit Action -> Script Editor:
  

  Code: Select all

  collide.transp = 1.0f; // This code will set the actor you have collision with to invisible.

  
  
• Here is a demo for you of how I would do it:

  It uses an array of Actor pointers to store the actors you have collision with. That way you can easily access all of those actors and do w/e you want with them so it obviously provides you a full control over the picked up items. Check the scripts and you will see how.

I just used the CollisionFree functions since it's just a single item, but the bag demo looks really useful. I might be using it someday.
