Hi, community.

For quite a long time i have an unsolved problem: picking one of the overlapping objects.

In this project i have 5 cards "in hand". The problem is when i pick any card that has another card "under" it the bottom card pops instead of the top one.

I've tried "pick nearest" and that help with less overlapping items, but in this game it's not the way to go.

Any suggestion or examples? I hope community have simple and nice decision.

try adding the second condition:

card | pick top instance

it is at the bottom of the conditions list, after you pick the card object. Called "pick top/bottom"
