OK I realized that my condition is not that you wanted but if you change it
to:
if $killed != true, it should be what you want ....
... you also need to be able to break out of the loop which can be achieved
by:
changing: "every 1 do" to e.g. : "t=every 1 do" and then adding to IF
statement : "else t.remove"
Sorry for not being correct at the first place.
