  I just tried that but the bug persisted. I thought it was a text object bug because families' pvs work fine with sprites and other objects.

  Nevertheless I found my workaround: I'll use sprites with pics of text instead of actual text.

  Thanks anyway!

  I think i found a bug within the text object.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Give a text object some private variables

  2. Add the same text object in a family

  Consequence: that family's private variables no longer work properly in the events.

  Here's a cap: dl.dropbox.com/u/52670878/Text%20Bug.cap

  The event where it says "Blue: "test" is equal to 0" doesn't trigger even tho the text's(which is in family Blue) variable "test" is 0.

  Yeah, that fixed it. Strange bug though...

  Thanks a lot R0J0hound.

  That's not the solution in my case. None of the physics object overlap when it crashes on my pc.

  I was wrong in the first post. I can get exactly 256, not 255 objects on screen at the same time.

  Also, I'm able to get 256 physics objects to overlap without any lag at all. Why would I be unable to do so with 257+ objects?

  Here's a simple cap: dl.dropbox.com/u/52670878/Physics%20crash.cap

  Please let me know if it works on your computer.

  For some reason, if at any time I have over 255 objects using the physics behavior on screen, my application immediately crashes saying:

  "An unexpected error has occurred and the application was terminated

  You may be able to find out more info about the crash by debugging and attempting to reproduce the bug", and once i close the window it says "Temp.exe has stopped working"

  When I try to use the debugger, it automatically closes and and just says "Temp.exe has stopped working"

  Does this only happen on my computer or is it a known bug? Why does this happen?

  UPdate: same thing, but with half the events:

  dl.dropbox.com/u/52670878/Advance%20Wars%20turn-based%20grid%20movement.cap

  Map editor with 10 events coming soon(maybe).

  Basically I used a negative width of a canvas to reverse the effect of the tiled background object.

  How about:

  +Array:For each object

  ->System:Create object Text at Array.CurrentX*10, Array.CurrentY*10

  ->Text:Set Text to Array(Array.CurrentX,Array.CurrentY,1)

  Make the objects herosprite and hero non-global, and copy>paste them in the other layout. That worked for me.

  If it's colliding with a wall set the ship's angle to 2*wall's angle - ship's angle.

  here's a picture explaining the maths:

  dl.dropbox.com/u/52670878/Untitled.png , where b is the wall's angle and a the ship's angle.

  If it's colliding with an asteroid, you can first get the b angle, by using the system angle between points expression.

  I'm not sure if that's the kind of "bounce" you wanted though.

  Sometimes when physics objects collide at low speed they don't bounce, but stick with each other, no matter how much their elasticity or linear damping is.I'm not sure if this is a bug, or something i don't understand yet.

  Here's what i'm talking about: dl.dropbox.com/u/52670878/bug.cap

  How can i fix this, so that the objects always bounce off, no matter how slow they move?

  Aha it seems something is wrong with the bounce action.It picks all instances of the sprite instead of one.

  Here: dl.dropbox.com/u/52670878/bounce%20bugfix.cap

  The best workaround i can think of.Let me know if you can't figure out how it works.
