what can be the cause of certain actors not appearing in the game when you go to test it?

This is the most vague thing I've ever read.
Test it on what? GS? Ad-hoc?
Are the actors dragged on the scene/instances? Spawning? Why are they supposed to be there? Are your images too large?
You created the actor and input some behaviors, but you did not drag it to the screen.

You created the actor and input some behaviors, but you did not spawn them on the screen via another actor.
My Blog / App Store / Google Play
The rules in it cause it to move or start off the scene.
Alpha change to zero?
It'there but behind another actor.
It's destroyed instantly?
The actor's size is 0x0 ?
It's got a move behaviour that is so high it disappears off the scene immediately ?
The camera instantly moves to an area away from the actor ?
The actor is constrained to another actor that is outside the area of the camera ?
The camera size is much smaller than the scene, so is only looking at a small area of the scene that doesn't contain the actor ?
The spawn behaviour you might be using to spawn the actor into the scene has the wrong values in the coordinates setting ?
The spawn behaviour you might be using to spawn the actor into the scene doesn't specify which actor needs to be spawned ?
The table you might be using to spawn the actor is set up incorrectly or referencing a column that doesn't exist ?
As soon as you preview - a change scene behaviour is triggered meaning the game instantly changes to a scene that doesn't contain the actor ?
The image applied to the actor is completely transparent ?
The actor has a rule that states if it collides with the BG image it's destroyed, so is destroyed instantly ?
You've placed the actor into the wrong scene ?
What's the prize ?
