So I’m building a top-down shooter, but I want the top of the sprite to be connected to another one. This is so the entire sprite doesn’t hit a wall and only the bottom half. ![Screenshot 2023-03-08 20.14.32](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/e/e8c4c2b9b694cb58eaad157b35c8d39308bfeda8.png) To do that I want it to follow the position of the bottom and stay above it. The thing is I don’t know how to do that and I want to keep it in blocks. Any help? ---

forever loop spriteA.x = spriteB.x ( + xOffset ) spriteA.y = spriteB.y ( + yOffset ) ---

This situation kind of depends on how you are using the sprite! My solution would be to have a forever block that sets the top sprite’s position to just above the bottom one’s, but depending on how you want the two pieces to behave, that might not work. ---

you could use set x and y blocks heres a example of how you could do this > **[example attached sprite](https://arcade.makecode.com/S51712-16541-17343-14881)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. ---

So I used your code and it worked but it would glitch back and forth when you hit a wall. ![Untitled video - Made with Clipchamp](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/e/ed1a53afa5390cdc971f9da0ce418e7f8f389f1f.gif) Any idea for what happening here? ---

I don’t think you fixed it properly. I walked under a tile that was lower than the robot. Then the robot got kinda squished It’s kinda hard to see on the picture ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/6/687c3e51d1628cd732a13398dbd8007880433d21.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/8/8c63bde9bc055d78b4037abe356650dc008b33b2.png) Just test it for yourself
