Bullet collision animation never ending

[Pixels]

So Im making a event where a player fires a bullet and the event for the bullet hitting the background objects looks like this:

"Bullet": collides with the background
"Bullet impact animation": set position at (0,0) from "Bullet"
"Bullet": destroy

My problem here is that the bullet impact animation keeps going for ever or until another bullet hits the background objects and then the bullet impact animation starts over there and keeps going.

Could anyone help me out so that the bullet impact animation will just play once or for a brief second before vanishing?

Tried to be as descriptive as possible hope you understand and thanks for any answers

You could compare the impact animation frame to a number and if it equals that frame destroy it.

I put it like this: Current frame of impact animation = 3: destroy

The problem is that you barely see anythin of the animation it's over in less than a second so it's not really working. Any idea on how to fix that? Im sorry but im still extremely new at this.

Yup give your [color:#FFFF33]bullet[/color] impact animation a movement, then [color:#FF0000]destroy[/color] it when it is [color:#FF0000]stopped[/color]. This should give you more time for Special FX.

Be sure to give the [color:#000099]movement[/color] some deceleration.

Due to MMF's optimized and improved runtime, everything runs faster.
