Re: spring kill problem
The problem may be that your projectile is going so fast that Algodoo cannot update fast enough in order to make the two collide. One thing you can attempt to do would be to open the console with the tilde key (~) and then type "sim.frequency = 600" or some other number above 100. Another thing you could attempt would be to make the killer object longer.

Re: spring kill problem
It might sound dumb, but check if your box isnt set to "Immortal" in the material options.
Also, if i understand correctly, im not sure your system can work, as the box should be killed before pushing the bullet (or are you using the spring feedback, when its pushing the box away from the bullet ? but I think you wouldnt get much power this way).

Re: spring kill problem
Put Algodoo speed to the lowest it can go (0.010%?) you will notice the bullet will seem to skip around if it's skipping over the box thats the problem if its in the box you've got a different problem. Also DON'T change sim.frequency.

Re: spring kill problem
definitly just make sure that the collision menus match up and just keep making the box bigger and bigger
look at my cannon, its killer box is as big as it is...
also i agree with mystery, dont increase the sim fequency, it doesnt help much for the purposes of having fun
