I have a 'Spaceship' object, when i pin a 'Thruster' object to the 'Spaceship', i add 1 to a variable called 'Overlap'.

Im struggling to find a way to subtract 1 from 'overlap' when the 'Thruster' is no longer pinned to the 'Spaceship'. Ive tried lots of variations but no success.

Please halp!

This sounds like it shouldn't be that hard.

Couldn't you subtract 1 from the value in the event the unpinning takes place?

It would be a lot easier and less guessing if you could share your current events/capx for us to take a look at..

Yeah i thought it would be easy before i got into it. Sorted it now, it was some conflicting variables making it bug out. Always a simple solution, was derping at it for too long haha.
