That way, I could make it that colliding with any object in the Group.Bad would activate the code and I wouldn't have to code them seperately. However, the code is only activated by two of the objects in this group (the up-facing spikes and down-facing spikes). I'm pretty sure that this is an inherent problem with MMF2, but is there a way around this so that I don't have to code each different object separately? Sandwich Time!Whoo!

Most people claim that it's just bad coding, not a MMF bug, but I don't really know anymore. What I do know is that it's really messed up a lot of my games. You can always use an alterable value instead of a qualifier.. I've done that before and it works. Or use the code pixelthief suggests here: http://www.create-games.com/forum_post.asp?id=222433 That's fixed my problem.

I refer to it as the "Pixelthief code" in my comments Disclaimer: Any sarcasm in my posts will not be mentioned as that would ruin the purpose.
