I usually use a flag or something like that. Enemy.Health <= 0 AND Enemy.Flag0 = Off THEN Destroy Enemy, Set flag 0 = ON, Play sound This way it only happens once. Craps, I'm an old man!

(Again in TGF, maybe that's been fixed in fusion) @Eric - Uh, that's the code you need to make it work. What do you need explained? It's a straight forward event. Craps, I'm an old man!

Knudde (Shab) Administrator Crazy? Registered 31/01/2003 Points 5125	6th February, 2008 at 16:12:13 - Umm, I could code you an example, but seriously, it's one event. Exactly how I typed it. Enemy.Health means whatever value you're using of your enemy active object for the health. When it drops to or below Zero (When you'd destroy the enemy I'm assuming). Craps, I'm an old man!

Xio Registered 21/01/2008 Points 218	6th February, 2008 at 17:31:25 - it works but doesnt work on my paticular game :/ ima start over ty Squigy my blob maker of music 8-bit music though
Knudde (Shab) Administrator Crazy? Registered 31/01/2003 Points 5125	6th February, 2008 at 19:41:03 - Beware of bugs if you use the only one action when event loops, if two bullets collide at the same time, only one will be destroyed. Unless you use the Overlapping command. Craps, I'm an old man!
