What version of Unity/Pmaker are you running?

I saw this behavior when using Unity 5.3 and Playmaker 1.7- went away when I upgraded to 1.8

Thank you so much. This seemed to clear it right up. I was terrified to use 1.8 because it said BETA.

I went to the gym feeling hopeless, and came back to an answer, really. Thanks. 

Any ideas why screen to world 1, 1, 0 (normalized) would return 0, 0, -7.8? I don't see how this is possible, but at least my variables are no longer glutting out on me.

No prob  :)

Hmm thats a weird one- outside of some other state/fsm modifying the value- something to do with cameras maybe can't say-

I figured it out! The camera HAS to be set to orthographic is seems. It spawns my object on the Z depth of the camera, even in ortho mode, but in the corder of my actual screen resolution. 
 
I think I really need to look into the 2D settings of unity since I'm making a 2D game, but I'm scared.
