Don't separate them! Move the SAngle directly under Frame, and Set SAngle under Set Frame, and Sprite.Set angle under Set animation.

What you are doing is storing the data from the original Sprite. Once stored, then you create a new Sprite. All instructions after the new Sprite affect the new Sprite. As soon as you pop out to a new event line, you are back at the original Sprite.

Same trick. Angle is a separate field, like Frame. Make another local variable (Can't call it Angle, so SAngle), store the clicked sprite's Angle. Set the new sprite's Angle = SAngle.

Spawn doesn't work, but Create does.

You can use Dropbox and just munge the address a bit so the auto-detect doesn't block it.

It would be simpler for you to post the file, since you have one already.

You only store the value for the time between clicking the button, and setting on the new sprite. This action won't affect performance.

Store the original frame number in a local variable, and then after the new sprite is created, set it's frame to the stored value.

You'll need other code to call it only when needed, but this is the equivalent.

Use System:Compare two values

When you open a Sprite, there's an Animations panel. The first is Default. Right-click to Add animation, and now you've got a second animation to work with.

Use Sprite.Set animation to set it to the 'eat' animation at the appropriate time.

Not sure what you mean. The original would be the first animation. The eating would be the second.

Maybe post what you have if this still isn't making sense.

Because you are constantly Creating the score, every tick! Add Trigger once.

You generally Spawn a new one, and Destroy the old one. Or, you'd change the animation instead.
