How can I make a rule or option where an actor will destroy if another actor has also been destroyed

If I have a touch event that destroys an actor how can I make it so that actor 2 if touched will only destroy if actor 1 has been destroyed?

That's what game attributes are for. Make a boolean attribute called game.actor1dead.

Actor 1:
When touch is pressed
     Change attribute game.actor1dead to true
     Destroy actor

Actor 2:
When touch is pressed and attribute game.actor1dead is true (set rule conditions to ALL instead of ANY)
     Destroy actor

Or you can nest your rules:

Actor 1:
When touch is pressed
     Change attribute game.actor1dead to true
     Destroy actor

Actor 2:
When touch is pressed
When attribute game.actor1dead is true
     Destroy actor
Otherwise
     [do something when actor 2 is touched but actor 1 is still alive]
