ok, well, in my game the guns will fall to the floor when you drop them, but if the gun is out of the frame, then comes back into the frame, it falls through the floor, anyone know why?

Hmm... it could be to do with detecting background collisions from a distance away (check the frame properties)?

Also check the object's own properties so that it doesn't become inactive when it moves off screen.

yeah its detecting background collisions, and i have to make the guns inactive if to far from frame because all my platforms are actives, therefor if there not inactive if to far from frame the game slows waaaay down, any other suggestions?

set alt val A to x of object when it hits the floor and set alt val b to y then use these values as the placeholders for the object. you will need to disable any movements you have set on the gun for it to work though.

no it would still move as the co-ordinates are the same no matter where you are on the game.

gun collides with active
set alt val a (gun) to x
set alt val b (gun) to y
always
set X gun to alt val a
set y gun to alt val b
that should work

Err, what about a Flag?
Gun collides with Platform -- Set Flag 0 on
Flag 0 is on - Stop gun
I'm assuming that all the collisions happen on screen.
Craps, I'm an old man!
