hi. I am new to game salad. this is a basic question. I have done the first steps getting my player (cube) onto the stage screen. I am now trying to get the next step completed where the player is destroyed by the lava. I have followed the steps but when I collide with the lava it does not kill me. I know this is a basic step but any help would be great.

How do you have your rules setup? You should have a rule in your cube that says:
When overlaps or collides with Lava,
-- destroy

That's what I have but it does not destroy the cube.
Can you post a screenshot of your code?
I can't copy the image from game salad to here.
When I click on attach image here it says paste url.
Make sure your rule is set up in the cube actor.
I have double checked and it all looks correct.
I set it up as follows. actor overlaps or collides with lava, destroy.
Is one or both of the actors being affected by Interpolate Behaviors? If so the collision won't be recognized because the Interpolate Behavior works outside of the normal physics engine.

the only behaviours or rules are on the cube. no rules are set up for the lava
Is that correct. I followed the tutorial.
apologies for posting it twice. I accepted an answer but didn't know it would say that my question was answered. I am still having issues. thanks
any more help in this matter would be great.
You say:
Is there a tutorial you're following?
yes. the gs course instruction. I can move the cube and place the lava but nothing happens when the cube hits the lava. probably something obvious.
I haven't watched that tutorial but I've attached a sample project here that might help. Check it out and let me know if you have any questions. Use the right and left arrow keys to move the block, when you touch lava it will be destroyed.
hi. I can't open the zip file.
I got it to work. thanks to all who helped me. really grateful.
Glad to hear you got it working.
