I sure I cant do this??

I have an idea for a project but I dont think its possible?

Is it possible for the player to be able to draw a sprite in a given area of the screen(once the game has started) and the script to remember it and be able to use that drawing as a sprite later in the game?

I know that when you are scripting that you can grab a region of the screen and use that as a new costume but is it posible do achieve that once the script is running?

Bit of a long shot but if anyone knows you guys will, cheers for any help that you can give.

Re: I sure I cant do this??

It certainly wouldn't be easy, but an approximate version of what you describe might be possible. If you used a list to stock the positions of the pen while the 'sprite' is being drawn, you could then add or subtract values from each element of the list and then use the pen tool to redraw the sprite. It might be a bit slow and buggy, but more or less doable.
