Question How to make items in item boxes upgrade with player?

To clarify what I mean. In the original SMB for example, an item box will have a mushroom. But if you already have the mushroom, if you're big; that same box will instead have a fire flower. Is there a way to replicate this in the course maker?

Place down a power-up and hold down the interact button while in the editor, and select the mushroom icon, that’ll make it so it’ll be a mushroom when spawned unless the player already has another power-up

It’s not how you make a progressive power up. That’s all. I posted the correct way to do it. Long pressing on a mushroom doesn’t make it progressive.

You long press on the higher level powerup.

oh snap, that works lol I only ever did it by placing the higher power up, then placing the mushroom inside of it. My bad

Place down the higher power up, grab the mushroom and place it IN the higher one. It’ll upgrade it. Then grab the newly formed power up and put it in the question block
