I assigned an action to an entity, with an EVENT_IMPACT emask, but it seems that the event is not triggered at all, nothing happens after searching the manual, I got the Idea that my code should work... Maybe some one else can spot the mistake here is the code: Click to reveal.. function event_collect() { my.z+=100; } action target_collect() { my.emask \|= (EVENT_IMPACT); my.event = event_collect; } the idea is to check if the event is triggered, which can be seen because the entity... jumps it might be that I forgot something else, maybe some things work different in A7? It looks like a beginners question to me, but I would really appreciate your help Thanks in advance Check out the throwing game here: The throwing game

The Engine don`t shut down or what? sorry, I meant that the engine did not shut down. what ever I tried to put in the event, nothing happens Check out the throwing game here: The throwing game
