Question about destroying an actor

KempProductions

I know there is a way, but i havent figured out the best way. How would i destroy an actor when it goes completely off the playing screen?

quantumsheep

have 4 rules on the actor you want destroyed that say:

Rule 1: If self position x <0 then destroy actor

Rule 2: If self position x >480 then destroy actor

Rule 3: If self position y <0 then destroy actor

Rule 4: If self position y >320 then destroy actor

Hope that helps,

Thank you QS. I just needed it for x because i have gravity and an actor that everything collides with at the bottom.

No problem!

Hopefully it'll help others too

There is no self position under the rule. I just see mouse button, overlaps/collides, key, mouse position, or touch.

Change the rule from "Actor receives event" to "Attribute" then you will find it in the expression editor ("e") textbox.
