I need the fastest way to find the distance between to sprites, not using X and Y coords.
For reference, this is a raycaster, so it shoots rays out and records how long it takes to hit something. I would like the absolute fastest way you can do this
My current code (for finding distance)

here you are!

Also, if you haven't already done so, remember putting the code under a custom block and toggling “run without screen refresh” on. This makes it faster.

Well, you could use the Pythagorean Theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2.
Makes the slope into a right triangle where the vertical line is a leg (a or b) and the flat line is also a leg (also a or b)
Be sure the x

OK ignore ALL of that, while trying to find what I was trying to say I say a “distance to mouse pointer” but you can change it to a sprite and use that value
