How do I fire family event for all members in instance

Hi All,

i have a ragdoll object and added all pieces to a "family". I added a fade behavior to the family. I setup an "on collision" event for the family which fires a start fade on the family. The problem is that the fade start does not consistently fire for all members at the same time.

Is there a better way to go about checking a collision for any of the pieces of the ragdoll and firing an event on all of them at the ~exact same time? thanks!

I can't help but feel that families aren't the best thing to use here. It sounds more like you want a container. Here's the manual entry for containers -- I'd highly suggest reading up and playing around with them.

Hope this helps.

edit: also had the same thought re containers while doing this.. might be preferable

Hey thanks to both of you. This definitely solved my problem but another problem has come up. My container is a ragdoll.. when i create an instance of the ragdoll and create the revolute joints, the limited revolute joints do not seem to work? they appear positioned incorrectly and do not rotate. the non-limited joints are positioned correctly and work correctly. Any ideas? Thanks!

Sorry, i was wrong. All joints created, regardless of type are attached to the default imagePoint in the "body" regardless of what is set?
