functions ?

hey all im making a space game with a mining laser

now heres what i want to do

when my mouse is over and i clicked the asteroid i want to start the laser BUT when my mouse exit the asteroid i want to stop the mining laser for good until i redo it is there a way for it ?

On asteroid clicked > start mining

Mouse cursor is not over asteroid > stop mining

On asteroid clicked > start mining

Mouse cursor is not over asteroid > stop mining

as a function ?

or as a finite state machine

wut? as 2 events. That should work.

got a way better solution

+ System: On start of layout

-> System: Set group "Mining" Deactivated

+ Mouse: On Left button Clicked on Asteroid

+ Mouse: Cursor is over Asteroid

-> System: Set group "Mining" Activated

-> Audio: Play SFX6 not looping at volume 0 dB (tag "laser-start")

-> System: Wait 0.11 seconds

-> Audio: Play LaserLoop2 looping at volume -5 dB (tag "laser-loop")

+ Mouse: [X] Cursor is over Asteroid

-> System: Set group "Mining" Deactivated

Isn't that the same solution?

yes. yes it is.
