Behavior Nightmare

[Jan Schenkel]

Do the groups have their 'backgroundBehavior' property set by any chance? In theory, a behavior acts like an object-specific backscript, but the message path for background groups is a tad strange when it comes to the card script, so who knows?
Can you confirm this with simple logging to a text field?
