How to calculate the “distance from” with x an y ?

Pythagoras' theorem




which can be arranged to



In scratchblocks:

set [dist v] to ([sqrt v] of (((x) * (x)) + ((y) * (y))))

no it wont work bruh

What do you mean?

i mean for Opguy90, also the the x and y variables; for which sprite it is?

You need to know the x and y positions of each end of the distance you're measuring. If they're both sprites that's your answer. but if you want the distance between sprites there's a block for that so no need to do this. If you want to know how far a sprite is from a known x, y position then it's that's sprite position that needs comparing with the x,y coordiantes.
