Overlapping not working as I wish

Hello again.

We have a sprite that is 96px times 96 px, and this cover a block of nine sprites (32 each)

When I am using "System pick overlapping" and then enter the bigger sprite's X and Y as coordinates It wont find ANY sprite overlapping even if there are nine sprites below that.

Are there any better method that is not too taxing on system? (such as collide)

I wonder if the "overlapping" works by verifying the hotspot and compare it with the other sprite´s hotspot? Then I understand why it won't work.

Another question:

The "system pick" would not work outside of screen? (damn!)

EDIT: (instead for making monologue)

Apparently it should work on layout. At least I know it is not that. It is ME. haha.

I got a code working now for the overlapping thing. But the whole thing is not behaving as I want. When I test it in orderly fashion, it works but when in more chaotic setting it is .. well, you know.

The way I understand it, it picks the instance that overlaps a single point with its polygon.

Interesting and the polygon is set to full frame, so it should work but it won't.

Does this help at all?

blackhornet Thank you, it will help someone. In my case it is static, not moving figure.. exact 96x96, and exact 32x32 tiles under. But I solved it by doing other way, testing the coordinates section for section (9 of them). And this speficic works now.

I now have to battle with everything else.. haha
