8️⃣Actor Property Switcher

Change the visibility and collisions of one or more Objects during gameplay.

GAME MAKER 0.10 UPDATE

New UI Visibility toggle to turn on/off the affected actors' Indicator UI

​​	Switch visibility, collisions, or both Set general or specific targets, including the Object this Behaviour is applied to

PERFORMANCE TIP In multiplayer Experiences, there are two layers of logic that will not communicate with each other: singleplayer [SP] and multiplayer [MP]. For best performance, only apply [MP] behaviours and components to objects that MUST be synchronised to all players (or communicate on that layer), and maximise use of the [SP] (Client Only) layer.

USAGE TIP This behaviour will not communicate with Quests or [SP] behaviours or components. It can be used in singleplayer Experiences.

Common Uses

This new Behaviour is an efficiency improvement that allows Object properties to change during gameplay without needing to destroy Objects and spawn new ones with different properties.

Communications

Inputs: Multiple Messages

Outputs: Affects Objects by proximity, tags, or by Object identity
