    Hm, maybe by cloning your character and flipping the image. Then set the second character behind a mirror (hiding it with a layer of a wall or something) and let the mirror be a window. Just an idea though, don't know if it's gonna work. smile

    Hello. Thank for your answer.

    Good idea, but then if my character moves, the other character should move at the same time ..?smile

    Well that would also be possible. You would have to get the destination of the playable character & then calculate the offset of where the mirrored character needs to move to - for the movement side.

    Mirroring the animations would be easy enough. You would just trigger both the player animation & the mirrored characters animations at the same time. - only have it trigger the mirrored character animations if the playable character is inside of a specified action area in the way system.

    All in all, this is no simple thing, you are wanting to achieve here.
