EDIT: Well I was playing today with this challenge and came up with a solution thanks to few comments to give me the right idea.
So heres one solution i came up with
Example contains:
-Basic description in eventsheet
-Combination of two player sprites with platform and 8dirrection behavour
-Immitation of swimming with jumping out effect
-Very basic animation sprite effected by player movement

Hello
What Id like to do is a platform game where by overlaping the water area, the players "Platform" behavour would change into "8direction" behavour to imitate swimming.
The way I understanded it, is the Ignore input suposed to be used for what I plan.
Problem:
-Platform behavour wont jump
-When overlaping the water area, player does change into 8 dirrection but sinks to the botom
Illustrated Plan:
