Object doesn't become visible ✓

I'm having problems to make an object visible again.
Just created a test game [b]#5525[/b] to check this issue. You take the hook, and the image becomes invisible. Then use the hook from the inventory on the box, and the hook should become visible again, but it doesn't.

Hi
I don't think it's a bug.
The hook is an inventory object, it cannot be in the inventory and in a scene at the same time.
The standard "default" behavior of an inventory object into a scene is to transfer from the scene to the inventory, so it automatically disappear from the scene and appears in the inventory, as it's the "same" object => you don't need to deactivate it.
(you don't even need to create an interaction for that, but you can create an interaction "pick up XXX" to customize the effects when the player takes the object)

If you want an object  in the player's inventory to go back to a scene  when the player clicks on it, y'ou'll have to create an interaction with a "removeobject object "(perdre:xxx:target_scene) effect and specify the id of the scene in wich you want the object to return  (0= current scene)

I changed your test game to show you.

Also, a tip a bit tricky to understand: you should not specify  the scene in which the interactions takes place ("the "in field": in most cases, leave it to "anywhere") in your interactions definitions because it will force the interaction to trigger only if the target object is in a specific scene: if the object is in the inventory, it's not in a scene (choose "from the inventory" if you need to distinct effects if the object is triggered from the inventory and not from the scene)

I see, thank you for the explanation and advice. I didn't realize that items are differently handled than scene object.
Still learning :)

EDIT: I could incorporate your advice into my current game, thanks again.
