Hi Jon,

Nothing is wrong with your original behavior; that's why when you rewrote it
to a second one, the second one worked. The original one will still work as
well. Try clearing the behavior from all the sprites that use it, then
re-attach it. It's a bit of a pain if you're using it on lots of sprites -
hope you're not using the full 26 letters.
Director stores the values assigned to sprites via GPDL separately from
behavior property values that occur at runtime, since there's no sprite
instance at GPDL time. The 'stored' GPDL props or values get lost or
detached from their sprites occasionally, for whatever fruit-loopy reason.
Maybe James N, Bruce E, or anyone at MACR can tell us why.
Again, to repair it, clear the sprite of behaviors and simply re-attach it.
Hope this helps,
Rob
