Actor behavior questions

So I have two actors in my scene. One overlaps the other, but both have effects when clicked. The one on top is a text box that I want to disappear after it is clicked. This isn't an issue, however when I click on that actor where it overlaps the second actor, both events are triggered. How can I disable the second actor until after the first actor is clicked?

A simple approach would be to have a global boolean (as a global attribute) set when the first actor is active. In the code for the second actor, check for this boolean.

This approach can get a bit messy if you have a lot of enabled/disabled actors. In that case, you may need something more sophisticated (maintaining a list of active/disabled actors, etc.).

It's only the one scene so I'll work with what you've suggested tomorrow and post back on here if I get it working. Thanks for the suggestion.

Okay, I've fixed the issue using the code I've posted. Now I"m getting this error. Any idea what it is?

I should add that everything works as it should. I just get this error and I can either hit "Continue" or "Dismiss All". After hitting either, everything proceeds as planned. This happens when I click on the newly created actor that links to a webpage. (I'm using this to create a portal for users to donate since I plan to release my game for free)
