Something to do with sprites maybe?

Think this might be closed by 7331e60; lmk if it continues to show up after this or not

Still seeing a bit of this.

Line 68 now, where entA is an env_spritetrail

Alright, I'll take another look. Line 68 refers to entB, though; what are the locals for this particular instance of the error?

I was wondering, should it really be necessary to consider entities without a physics object when creating a contraption? I'm pretty sure this problem and others could be related to that.

For the purposes of ACF (and anything else I can personally think of right now), maybe not.

I might have a definitive fix for it on #9

Fixed on #9, closing.
