  The closest touch approach would be using 'Is Touching object' condition.

  It's in variable section, since I didn't modify previous action at all.

  Just add distance comparison whether the click took place in occupied spot.

  Use pin behavior or hierarchy. Below are using pin behavior to attach another body parts:

  Whoops, wrong file I hardly remember appropriate file name. Here the correct one

  A fancy control scheme (warning expression extensive!) for both keyboard and touch control: dropbox.com/scl/fi/w6mjtd46p994n4dguweat/4-direction-press-touch.capx

  Let me know what you think.

  Loopindex is kind of iteration command repeated based on condition input. In your case loopindex iterates through all family member.For instance if you have 5 family member, loopindex repeats command 5 Times.

  Meanwhile PickedCount Will show up as auto complete if you type object name followed by dot then add PickedCount in expression field. Expression Seems daunting at first but very handy in return.

  Here much much simple example summoning family member without randomness:

  Next example just incorporating loopindex to create grid:

  Study how isometric or dimetric projection work. Measure relative grid distance in that orthographic view and faking the realm until make sense. Try to formulate Z-sorting by filtering critea (object properties, tags, value). You probably want to break some object into fragments.

  You need to include loopindex as expression in object creation whether it is on X or Y. And make sure there is an instance of family in layout or remove destroy action. Also add another condition 'Family.PickedCount < 3'

  Then you should check whether previous family member already exist like this: construct.net/out

  You already got the logic that stated each line connected to only 2 nodes. Work from there we can perform flood fill operation to find '5' through the network and Mark the path.

  Sure you can set the iteration using lerp (layoutScale, 0.5, dt) for example.
