i got a quesiton about detecting
hi, i have a question about somethgin in scratch. i'm buildign a game where i have to detect where the enemy is without using the point toward tool, so i was wondering, if there is another way that i can detect the enemy so that i can fire accurately at it, and that i can know wehre the enemy is and try to stay away from it, any help is appreciated thank you!

Re: i got a quesiton about detecting
distance to sprite is your only hope and friend right now.
<when green flag clicked>
<forever>
<if><( <distance to[ obj <>> 50 )>
Action if your distance to object is greater then 50
<end>

Re: i got a quesiton about detecting
You could use the "X of sprite" "Y of sprite" blocks, or a detector sprite that rotates around your main sprite like a radar.

Is it a Tower Defense project? I'm working on one myself... behold my enemy script:
<when green flag clicked>
hey, no lists?! delete (all) of Add1
add (one) to Add1
<set{health}to(Add1
<go to x:(51)y:(172
<hide>
<forever>
<if><(health<=>0)>
<hide>
<end>
<if><touching color[green
<broadcast[pwned
<end>
<end>
<when green flag clicked>
<set{health}to(Add1
<show>
add ((<health><+>1)) to Add1
*MOVEMENT DETAILING*
<hide>
<when I receive[POW!! (hit)
<change{health}by(-1

Re: i got a quesiton about detecting
its not a tower defence project, the project that i'm making is that i build a robot or anything that uw ant it to be and that it roams around the map aiming at enimies who is constantly moving at random directions, i tried to use trig. triangulation to figure out how to do it but so far i'm still stuck.....
