Can someone tell me why the sprites are not destroyed when I hit the space bar?

Triggers are called outside of the C2 loop. Event 3 is NOT called right after the trigger. The flag is set to 1, then returns, so on the next loop, flag = 0 again, since it is a local variable.

Also, I recommend not putting them inside other events, for the same reason. Putting them as top events is the best solution, and will make live simpler. (Inside Groups is OK).
