You can do this with the standard XLM plugin, see these tutorials:

AllanR is right.

Also, since ColisaoCesta and cesta2 objects always exist in pairs, it's recommended to add them to the same container. Then when one instance (ColisaoCesta) is picked, its owns cesta2 object will be picked automatically in the same event. Read about the containers, they are sometimes very helpful:

No, don't put anything into global variable! :)

Use System object - add "System Is between angles" or "System is within angle" condition. In the Angle field put Wolf.8Direction.MovingAngle expression.

If you know the IID of the tile you want to copy variables from, you can do this:

Pick Tile instance -> Tile set Rcolor to Tile(n).Rcolor

Where "n" is the IID of another tile.

.

Another method is to use a family. Create a family with the Tile object. This will allow you to pick two Tile instances in the same event:
Pick Tile instance ..Pick TileFamily instance .....Tile set Rcolor to TileFamily.RColor

Note, that for this to work you'll have to define instance variables on the family. This tutorial may be useful:

Give me a Pixel Thanks!
The jam theme was "creative controls", so I tried to be as creative as possible. :) And my game actually won the jam!

I'm now thinking of adding maybe another 10 or so different levels to it, and releasing it on a platform like itch.io

Here is my attempt (two versions), not sure if it's working as you wanted, but maybe you could make something of it:

Ok... In this case it's probably easier to create a variable called HornsLost. Every time you break a horn, add 1 to HornsLost. On every tick set Horns to (Level-HornsLost)

I couldn't make sense of your code. There were so many conflicting events running on every tick... I removed and disabled most of them and added my version. It's bare bone, only to demonstrate how to move units and assign them to chopping treas.

You should only add 1 to horns when you add 1 to level. It's that simple.

If your level variable is increasing correctly, then put "Add 1 to horns" in the same event.

You need to pick the correct basket instance. Normally, when you use "On collision" event, it picks the instance which is in collision. Make sure your animation action is inside this event. If this doesn't help, please share a screenshot of your code or capx file.

Instead of "Every 1 second Set progressBar progress to (progressBar.progress-1)" use "Every tick Set progressBar progress to (progressBar.progress-dt)"
