create objects relative to another object problem

[1234cb]

I have objects being created every 3 and 5 secs that are created at the 0,0 point of another object (at it's hotspot/action point). They have a pinball movement applied to them, with gravity so they fall slowly when created. So the visual is these pieces of fruit springing out of something that continually happens at several second intervals. It works, but something weird also happens....a piece of fruit will come sailing down the frame as if it's dropping from the sky. It appears that the fruit object loses the object create info (at 0,0 relative to another object) and the pinball movement info which includes the gravity setting, and just get created somewhere in the frame. How do I fix this? I've taken properties off and reapplied them. Deleting the fruit objects and imported new ones, etc. Nothing fixes the problem. Is there an Always command or something else I can include that will stop this problem? Thanks for any advice!!

That's weird, how often does this happen? Once or multiple times? Can you post example?

1234cb - are you destroying these pinball objects when they go off screen? It might be that this rogue pinball object is one that slipped through being destroyed - just a thought! But as BigHatLogan says, we need an example.

Perhaps your "Original-Fruit"-Object is placed above the Playfield (Frame). In this Case, the Object will "sooner or later" fall into Your Frame (because you added a downward-movement to the Object). Try putting Your "Original-Fruit"-Object at the Side of the Frame or even better, delete it from the Frame (it will still be created via your "Create Object"-Actions) and it' s still editable via the Object-Bar.

With kind regards,
