You would do something like this:

when I start as a clone
forever
if <touching [Projectile v] ?> then
delete this clone
end
...
end

If the projectile doesn't have a sprite how is it represented? Is it a coordinate rendered by pen?

no? i don't even know how to use a pen

though i do suppose i need a new sprite

needs a new sprite for projectiles or you can detect touching a colour, but it would require said colour to be unique to said projectile,

Yeah, if you're not using coordinates/pen you need to make a new sprite for the projectile. Do you need help making code for the projectiles?

If you use the

 <touching (projectile v) ?>

block, it will also check if touching projectile clones too. They're right.

If all are clones, then you can use an id variable:

when I receive [check for projectile v]
if <<touching [myself v] ?> and <(id) = [projectile]>> then //You go to a different sprite then drag it into your sprite for it to detect itself  
... // Make sure the variable is for this sprite only, it's important
end
