I'm hoping someone can help,I've been working on a space invader type game and the problem is that, when I fire it, it can't just pick it up when passing and doesn't always pick up that it has touched the target. Any Suggestions? I've attached a picture of the script that isn't working.

Thanking you in advance

I wish I could help but I want to know what you mean by pick up…?

I noticed that the bullet was trying to sense if it was touching balloon1 but there was no balloon1 sprite.

Thanks for your reply, I mean that he doesn't sense the target.

I think this may be it… Watch this space… Thank you

Further help needed.. it's still not sensing the points??

I'm assuming Sprite5 is the issue? What's a Sprite5 can't it have a proper name?

Anyway perhaps you could explain what it's supposed to do as the only script that makes any sense is

when green flag clicked
hide
go to x: (-10) y: (-59)
set [Score v] to [0]

There isn't a Sprite 5 ??

One more thing is that it doesn't detect that it is hit the target.

Oh yes there is a sprite 5 and yes it is the problem

My original post still applies

The scripts that have been added have been to control the main ship.

One other problem is that we plan to have the the alien ships moving down, how can I have it so it still detects that its been shot when its moving.

Don't use the glide block.

It still isn't sensing that the bullet has hit the target.

Thanks
