Lives Object Problem

[That_Sean_Guy]

I am having a problem with the lives object. As you can see in the pic below the health icons are being ghosted. Is this a problem that can be fixed? This only happens when the character moves past a certain point in my side scroller. When you start the app it is fine.



Thanks for anyone who can help.

It might be to do with the save backdrop / display as backdrop settings on the lives object?

I have tried checking/unchecking the save backdrop option and the same problem happens either way. I guess I could just create my own custom lives display, but I thought it would be easy enough to fix this problem. If anyone has a fix for this I would really appreciate it.

How large is the Lives object when you highlight it in the frame editor? It may be something to do with the object drawing outside the bounds that it's expected to (when you remove a text object that has text outside its area, the same thing sometimes happens).

I used to have this problem a lot too. I was never able to pinpoint why this happened to some lives objects and not others, and none of the checkboxes could ever fix the problem. I just don't use the lives object anymore.
