HitBoxes multiple versions of same actor

Hey need some help with hitboxes,
Right now I have my actor spawn and when that happens it spawns a hitbox that is constrained to the actors x and y. It follows fine and when the hitbox gets hit a global attribute gets activated that tells the actor to destroy. This works fine when there is only one of them on the screen.
The problem that I have is there are multiple versions of the same actor that spawn on the screen, but when you shoot one of the actors a random one is killed. My best guess is that it is what ever one can run the sequence first.
So rather then creating a bunch of code so each of the actors that spawn use a different kill number. Is there a way to have the hitbox only kill the actor that is touching it?
Thanks for the help

Figured out the problem,
Created a table with 500 rows because it should never pass that
Then I made it so when a guy spawns it grabs a global number along with the hitbox. Once it gets the number it then changes the value up 1
then when the hit box gets killed it changes the table value to 1, which the actor sees and then dies because of that.
Thanks for the help though.
