How do I copy one instance to another?

Hello;

If I have two instances of the same object how do I copy one to another? I don't want to create a new instance, just copy some

variables from one to the other. I can't say instTwo.val1=instOne.val1 since as soon as I have an instance of an object the old one (from the same object) I had is lost to the event since the first one takes its place. Do I make local temp variables and save instOne.val1 to temp1, then get instTwo and set instTwo,val1=temp1. That seems convoluted. Is there a better way?

Thanks for your time.

Sprite(0).Variable = Sprite(1).Variable -> do something

But it depends on what you want to do. You can put Sprite into a family "SprFam" and then do ckecks like Sprite.variable=SprFam.variable.
