    i will try to write the rule here.

    timer: every 1 seconds (run to comletion is on)
    the timer is together with this spawn rule: spawn actor: actor2 , palce: in front of actor.
    in the direction: 0 relative to: actor
    from position: random(0, 1024) random(0, 768) relative to : scene

    Your rule looks absolutely fine . . . ?

    The only thing I can think of is that you typed the expression directly into the expression field without first clicking on the 'e' button ?

    Thanks a lot! now it works. but only one thing, some of the objects not seeing in the screen after 1 second. i think its because of the tablet size values are to big for the screen. will it work fine on iphone, seeing the missing objests?

    How big is your scene ? (what project size did you start with ?)

    Then you are spawning actors outside the scene, an iPhone 5 project is 568 x 320 pixels, your random value range spawns actors in an area of 1024 x 768 pixels.
