Thank you so much! You solved my first problem and I can now get it working. I still can't work out the bin thing.
I don't think I explained it properly the first time, sorry. I am trying to attach the bin above the player's head on collision with that bin.
In my events, all I have is player on collision with bin. I don't know where to go from here and the player only has an origin point as I don't know how to work image points.
Also is it possible to get him to put it down after a certain time period?
Thanks again.
