If say... Object1 collides with another Object1, how do I create a new object (for example Object2) at that collision positíon? Just typing coords Object1.x & Object1.y always creates the instance at another "pre-defined" Object1 !

Are the two objects that collide the same? If they are it´s a bit more complex as they will both have the same collision event... And do you want object2 to be created at the actual point of collision?

Yes, it's 2 of the same object that is colliding, and I want the third object to be created at the collision position!

Here is an example of how to figure out where to create the object. It is very basic but it works.

Well, seems to be too advanced for such a simple task !

Creature "Carnivore" collides with creature "Carnivore", egg is created at same position... That's the exact thing I want.

[Halowar77]

So do you want it to be created at the origin of the Carnivore, because by what you were saying you wanted it at the position of the collision.

Here is a commented version. With a few minor edits.

Yes, I want it at the position of the collision... When two Carnivore collides, I want them to leave an egg at the position they are colliding at!

Check my example. That is what it does.

Omg... All I needed was to set the create instance position relatively to 0,0, and NOT Object1.x, Object1.y !
