Gamesalad Ignoring Rules (a workaround)

in Working with GS (Mac)
I thought I'd share a little(!) problem I've encountered and a solution. I had a situation where I had a very simple rule that said "When self.X = 100 Change Attribute self.X to 1000". I tracked it and although self.X continually reached 100 Gamesalad would never change self.X to 1000.(I should note that the Rule was switched on!)

Finally, I simply recreated the exact same rule from scratch and deleted the original, and hey presto it worked.

Between that and the intermittent problems I am having with entering values and them reverting to zero or whatever they were before I changed them, I am a little frustrated with Gamesalad at the moment :)

    Hmm I've never consciously encountered anything like that before.
    There were a couple of times when a restart of the program automagically made some faulty Rules working, though.

    I think the benefits of GameSalad far outweigh the little squeaks of the software :) add to that the amazing improvements that have been taking place within GS lately.

    Glad you got your little hiccup there sorted out though!

    Thanks @TheGabfather, yes I would have thought the problem was with my code somehow but it really didn't appear to be. I do hope they address the problem with inputting/changing values though.
