r259 Sub-Events not Playing?

I just downloaded Construct 2 r259 and noticed something peculiar when I ran an event sheet. None of my sub-events will play until the main event has finished all of its actions. I don't remember Construct ever functioning this way, and I'm finding myself confused and frustrated. Is this a bug or an error on my part? How do I make it function like older versions of Construct?

I've been using r259 without any issue. Can you post an example capx?

The "wait" block prevents the HouseCover from fading out, even though the "FadeOut" is part of a sub-event.

I think this is a problem:

If you turn off the door collision, this whole even block here you check if the player is colliding with the door will be unusable (since the door has no collision, the player is unable to collide with it).

That being said, I'm not sure why but it works just fine here. Pressing O in the front of the door makes the house disappear in 1.6 seconds.
