Hi Andre, This is guesswork on my part but according to the message path diagram in the User Guide, background scripts are executed after card scripts. My guess is that causes some sort of conflict due to deleting the card in a script that is executing on the card to be deleted.
Moving it to the button means it is handled before the card comes into play so maybe the conflict doesn't exist in those circumstances. Once again, just a theory.
