Hierarchy question?

I have attached a hand to a body, with the body as the parent. Now, I have attached the palm to the hand, now the hand is the parent. The game logic is that when the hand size increases, the palm repositions itself to the appropriate area on the hand, (Nothing fancy going on, I have attached the hand to a body and palm to the hand, that's all)

as shown in the image below.

Now, coming to the issue part, Originally the palm was a perfect circle, but As you see in the below image, the palm-size is distorted when the size of the hand increases

To fix this, I have unselected the transform width, but the palm sprite not honoring its parent's XY position.

Obviously, we always set the size of the palm fixed on every tic, but can we achieve this using the hierarchy itself?

Here is the test C3p for reference.

In this particular case you will probably need to use Pin behavior to pin the hand to image point on the arm. Or update its position on every tick with events.

Thanks, Initially I tried with PIN, but dropped it because of couldn't figure out, how to make it work with the multiple instances without cloning

Means,

When the user click the spawn button, all the required object is created, After that, I set in every tick that it should Pinned to the respected position. But the problem occurs when the user hits the spawn button again, the pin only attached to the firstly spawn object only.

Please check this new test c3p, and try to click the spawn button multiple times, you will know what issue I'm talking about.

I tried with "For each" but couldn't figure it out.

You can still use the hierarchy to create all objects. And once created, pin the hand to the arm.

Thanks for the suggestion. I often find myself in this situation in various contexts

I want to know how to accomplish that. It would be great if you could guide me on how to do this without using Hierarchy at all, just the shake of learning.

But the problem occurs when the user hits the spawn button again, the pin only attached to the firstly spawn object only.

When you spawn an object, in a sub-event pick its arm and hand using "Pick child" condition.

You don't have to spawn body parts, they are created automatically when you create the body, because you have "create hierarchy=true". And you only need to pin once, not on every tick.

Try this:

Now I know where I made the mistake, Thank you so much.

I wish there was an option in the Hierarchy for this particular requirement. But maybe in the future, we might see one.

If I may, could you please assist me with this

I believe what you are looking for is families. You can add all body parts to a family and use "Body pick all BodyPartsFamily".
