Strange Create Object Bug
I was testing one of my projects and I realized a minor object wasn't being created. So I went into the event editor to see what the problem was and I found this:

It is supposed to be creating a minor explosion, but apparently it is creating a create object. The tooltip you see is what comes up when you scroll over the create object picture. I don't know when or how this happened. Has anyone else experienced this?
EDIT: As I go through the event editor, I'm finding that every instance of the explosion object has been replaced with the create object. It's very strange
Re: Strange Create Object Bug
Definitely sounds like the kind of thing to send to the developers! And restore from a backup/autobackup if you possibly can.
Re: Strange Create Object Bug
I've isolated the problem, and here is the very basis of it in an mfa file. I could only find two events with the problem, and those are the ones left in the application. You will notice that the one that says "Animation Stopped is Finished" has no actions on it, but if you go into the event list editor, there is a destroy action for it. It is very strange. Please check the file and tell me if the same bug occurs on yours as well. Here is the example file: www.clickalize.com/MMF2/Example.mfa
Note: I am using the latest build.
Re: Strange Create Object Bug
in my case, it's called "Bad Object 0" and i also get the hidden Destroy action
build 248
EDIT: just for kicks, i tried editing the Create action and MMF crashed as soon as i hit OK on the dialog

Wow, so it is actually a bad object bug. I had it earlier on in my game, but I thought I had gotten rid of it. Apparently it just changed names on mine. And yes, I just tried editing the create object action and after I hit ok, it froze for a second, then crashed. Any official opinion on this?
