    I am working on my first game. I need to have two buttons, one would scale down character and one would scale up character. Possible or not?

    not really sure what you mean
    you can do it with an action button ( not an advance...
    the advance move give u the possibility to change the collision shape + movement + new animation not the action
    the action button you can only change the animation and choose replace or add animation not the collision shape

    maybe try to mix action gameplay and the advance with 2 buttons on each other without Block touch activated...
    dont know what could happens ;)
    Bb is really incredible ...

    Sounds super. I want the player to be able to shrink the animated dude and scale it up with buttons. I will try.

    Hey
    I am trying to add an ACTION button but I can't select any Action in the Dropdown. Is this a bug?

    Drag an image in your Gameplay and add it to Action wheel

    select it in right viewer and select gameplay in the left window

    https://www.buildbox.com/tutorials/

    check for "power up" now its "action"

    Power Up Basic Options ;)

    good luck
