[Solved]If an item is Selected, what action to make the next touch trigger event?

Hello. I have a group of Machine. I want to select a machine when touch and highlight it. I want it deselected if a different machine is touch. I want all deselected if the ground or something else is touch. So far this seems to be working.
But.
I also want to open a menu if an already selected/highlighted machine is touched. This part I can’t seem to get right. I have a vague feeling I’ve seen something similar dealt with in a tutorial or example but can’t think of which one. Any help is appreciated

The way I would approach it is to initially add a trigger once to that first event.

Then you have 2 options:

  1. You can add a subevent to the first event. Add it as the first event, and check if Machine.isSelected is true. Then action accordingly.
  2. Otherwise add an action to the first event and set a boolean variable to the value of isSelected, and have another event (not a subevent) that actions when this variable is true.

I “think” I followed what you said and came up with this. It seems to be working with just the test text display. TYVM
