  Is it always cars? You can add another frame to the forklift sprite with a larger collision polygon (the size of the lift+car). So when the car is attached, switch to that frame in the forklift sprite.

  But if there are many different objects which can be lifted, then this method won't work..

  Each image is a separate object? It's not a good idea, I suggest using a single sprite object with multiple frames instead.

  If you prefer many separate objects, you need to add them all into a family, and then add Drag&Drop behavior to the family.

  By cross a trail you mean follow it?

  There are many ways you can do it, the easiest is probably with MoveTo behavior. Use "Add waypoint" mode to add all points of the trail. Check out this demo:

  You should be able to change the id of this instance variable in AsJSON data to match the "sid" value in Dots.json

  It should work if you do it correctly and change all occurances.

  So you need to create 1 sprite at the top, then 2 at the bottom, then repeat? And a pause between each sprite?

  Try this:

  Try to change the variable "loop" in the first function to static too.

  And you can remove "Wait for previous action", it has no effect there.

  A common approach is to use a different invisible sprite (just a rectangle) for movement and collisions. And pin your visible character sprite to it. This way you can have frames of variable shape and size in character animations, and they will not affect character movement. All you need to do is set the origin point correctly in all frames.

  Check how it's done in the official Kiwi Story template. There's Player_Base sprite and Player_Mask sprite.

  You can change their density, but not gravity.

  Did you import this font into the project?

  The safest method is to use SpriteFont - it will look the same on all devices.

  Select your keyboard event and press B. This will create a sub-event. The variables and the rest of the code should be in the sub-event.

  You also need to copy the script from Scripts folder.

  No, you can't use local variables like that. Local variables can only store their value until the end of the tick (unless you set them as static). That's why your object disappears - by the time you press Z button, both H and W are 0. And when you do "Sprite Set size to (w-16,h-16)", you set width and height to negative -16.

  If you change the variables to global (move outside the group), your code should work.

  Here is what I meant - local variables are used for temporary storage and only inside this event:
