Actor changing image randomly

I was doing something with a platform game, and when I move left and right, the image of the actor will suddenly change back and forth randomly. Does anyone know what the problem is and how to fix it? Unless I'm mistaken, it has to do with the physics engine.

Having trouble with your game? Sounds like a personal problem.

    It could be that the actor has the behavior known as "Animate", try and see if you have that. If you do, delete it, turn it off, or un-check loop. This should help you.

    Or do you have an otherwise statement changing the image?

    Nope. I don't have anything at all in the otherwise statements

    It's almost certainly caused by the way you have your code and rules and attributes set up.

    I never meant that the physics engine was bad, I meant as in I may have missed something ON the physics engine. Like I might have to have the attributes set up in a certain way that I didn't do. Do you want me to put up a screenshot to show you what I've done?

    I'm trying to add up a bunch of numbers, they should come to 1124, but I keep getting 924 instead, I'm not going to tell you what the numbers I'm adding up are, but does anyone know how to fix this issue ?

    :P ;)

    That's almost certainly the case.

    I would think so. Can I show you a screenshot of what I have and maybe you could give me an idea of what exactly I'm doing wrong?

    Yes. In fact any time you're having a problem with rules it's necessary to either describe in detail how the rules work or post a screenshot or exact text replica of what the rules look like. Otherwise, we're guessing without knowing the information you have in front of you.

    I know, I just felt that it may have been a common problem since it seems very easy to come across, so I thought that some people would already have figured it out.

    I already already gave it a temporary fix. If I run into the problem again, I'll show what I did.
