How do I create dynamic menu using sprite animations?

Hey C3! Since being shown the many options available using sprites and frames, my project has drastically fewer "spawn" or "create" object codes. [thank youoosyrag!!]

Now that I'm getting more familiar with the frame/animation direction, I thought I would use them for this menu.

I created a sprite called BuildOption_Sprite with an instance variable of SlotID and copied the sprite so there are 4. Then when the user picks one of the 4 frames, the animations would change based one of the 4 the user picked. This would trigger four 4 frames to appear. At least, that was the idea.

Instead, when the 4 options are available, the animation only changes for the sprite you picked, not all. Any help coding this would be appreciated.

When you use an object on clicked event it narrows the picked instances to 1 so you can't then continue to pick from the other instances in sub events. You can open all instances again by adding 'Pick all Sprite' in the sub event. There are also other ways to do this like using a function and pass through a parameter which sets the frames based on parameter passed.

You need to use the same object, that build family is a different object and you don't need to use that. Also in terms of structure add Pick all sprite as a sub event then indent again for the other conditions.

Got it!!! Thank you for your patience and explanations!

Changed the circled portion from BuildOption_Sprite to the BuildOption family.
