nLivesRemaining should be in your hud.

The way it looks, you have 5 actors, each have nLivesRemaining at 10.

When an actor collides, 1 is subtracted from it’s own lives of 10, passes 9 to the hud, and then is destroyed.
When another actor collides, 1 is subtracted from it’s own lives of 10, passes 9 to the hud, and then is destroyed.

Put the lives variable in 1 place (perhaps the hud) so there’s only 1 version of it.

Hi Juice-Tin, and thank you for your reply. I have the nLivesRemaining variable declared in the MyActor.h file as protected in scope. Are you saying that I should remove it and declare it in the AMyHUD.h instead? I’m not sure how I’d implement changes in the OnHit function to update the variable declared in the HUD.
