Is it possible to make powerups so that you have to activate 'em to pick the buggers up? I've been trying for the past few weeks, and have come to the conclusion that my cog is fine, therefore, I will assume it's the templates. Or, I will assume that it's impossible and life is one big exercise in futility. Haven't decided which yet. Of course, I'm probably wrong.

Thoughts, suggestions?

Sure, its possible.


1) Set the parent template of your powerup to '_walkstruc".

2) Make you cog the powerup's class cog.

3) Under Created, add "Powerup = Getsenderref();

4) Under Activated, add the powerup code.

5) After the powerup code, add "Destroything(Powerup);

6) Problem solved.

I was modifying the original powerup cog. Would I still need to add the created message?

Nah. You could put it under Activated instead.
