Scene Reset Collision Recognition Glitch

Ok, so I am making a game with a ball that has circular collision. Every time I reset the scene the ball is supposed to fall on a platform and there should be recognition of collision. However, after the scene is reset, the ball simply and literally falls through the platform. PLEASE HELP!

    I can't guess why this is happening so please post a screenshot of your rules.

    Actually, if I had to guess I would guess there's another condition (i.e. attribute) in your rule that isn't getting reset.

    That link only works on your computer :))

    You must upload this to a file-sharing website on order for all of us to view it :)

    The forum tag for adding an image (from a file-sharing site) is <$img src="URL"> without the $ symbol.

    Anyway, I tried resetting the scene when my actor isn't destroyed and it collides just fine, so I guess that if the reset scene button is pressed when the actor is still on screen, it works. Now I just need to figure out how to make the actor seem destroyed yet still remain on screen for the scene reset to work properly. Any suggestions?

    Oh wait no, I misread your post.

    I thought you meant that HTML let us to download his image.

    I've used that Forum tag before.



    Yeah, @GameGod96, you can put the URL from the file-sharing site in the URL part of <*img src="URL"> (no asterisk)

    You can move the actor off-screen by changing its self.position.X or self.position.Y (e.g. to -100) or hide the actor by changing its self.color.Alpha to 0.

    @GameGod96

    Note that changing self.color.Alpha is the only way to make an actor invisible during gameplay.

    Self.Visible is not changeable!

    All screenshots should be there ^

    It's not just that. Your posts are double-spaced and have all this extra spacing which eats up forum readability really quickly. Consider the fact that you can accomplish the same thing with less:

    Oh sorry about that. It's a bad habit for me. I'll stop that now.

    Using the screenshots posted above, any suggestions as to how to fix the resetting glitch either by fixing the reset scene action or by any other means would be indescribably appreciated. :) Thanks for your time guys.

    @GameGod96 One of your screenshots worked but the other two links look like private Dropbox URLs. You'll need to share a dropbox link and then post that here. See https://www.dropbox.com/help/274/en.
