Thanks, that's what I needed to know, I guess... At first I thought it could 
work without putting the states in some outer state.

Yes, it works fine with the outer state, just like it's explained in the 
tutorial. I think I'll have to revise the layout of my state machine. Thanks 
again for the explanation.
