Hi,

You should be able to use the destroy function.

The problem with destroying spawned items is if you didn't give it a unique name when you spawned it you won't be able to tell the game which portal to destroy.

Also when using destroy it's a good habit to check the item exists before destroying it or you may crash the game

so something like (not tested)

Code: Select all

function spawnPortal()
         spawn("teleporter",5,22,11,0,"Temp_Portal")
         Temp_Portal:setTeleportTarget(26,30,0)
end

if Temp_Portal then
      Temp_Portal:destroy()
end

Yes, that is exactly what i was looking for.. i used it in stepcycle, so checking may be not necessary, but i added it for guaranty.. also i like the smoother effect of spawned port instead of activated.. now i hope it still work when i export the mod.. thank you sir ;)
