I created an actor model and assigned it to a variable. When I send the actor a message by the last created actor function, it always works. However if I assign the last created actor to a variable, some messages work sometimes and other messages don't work at all. An example: Create actor model; lastCreatedActor = (last created actor function); sendMessage(setHeight(1)) to lastCreatedActor (the variable); //this works Wait 4.0 Game time seconds; sendMessage(setHeight(2)) to lastCreatedActor (the variable); //this fails however if i replace the above line with: sendMessage(setHeight(2)) to last created actor (the function), it works just fine. another example of this is with the destroy message: sendMessage(destroy()) to last created actor (the function) //this works sendMessage(destroy()) to lastCreatedActor (the variable) //this fails overall, it seems random whether I can use a variable or I have to use the last created actor function when sending a message to an actor. I need this to work because I want to create an actor in one trigger and then destroy it in another trigger. This can only be accomplished by saving it to a variable for reference in the trigger that it wasn't created in. Another bug I found with this is the sendMessage(setScale()) function. sendMessage(setScale(2,2,2)) to lastCreatedActor (the variable); //this works sendMessage(setScale(.1,.1,.1)) to lastCreatedActor (the variable); //this fails sendMessage(setScale(.1,.1,.1)) to last created actor (the function); //this works
