Please help, I am using the raycasting extension, and I am attempting to make a spy-shooting game. I just started and am already stuck.  
Projectiles don’t work, because there is nothing that can tell if they overlap another 3d object. I need a way to damage the bot when the bot gets hit, and the player when the player gets hit.

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Here is my project: [https://arcade.makecode.com/S45991-03166-45177-60607](https://arcade.makecode.com/S45991-03166-45177-60607)  
Press A to shoot.

PS. I’m new, I don’t really know how to post, please tell me if I’m posting in the wrong category or any other rules 🙂

4 things.

1. Welcome @BoogerBubbleChunks! 😃
2. Great game so far, the art is super good.
3. You **did** post in the correct category. I totally get why you were/are concerned about it; I was too when I made my first post.
4. the problem has a simple fix that’s hard to find if you don’t know what to look for (I’ve also had this problem before). You need to put the “is sprites `sprite` and `othersprite` overlaps in z dimension” block into an if statement, then throw those into the standard overlap block. In all theory, this should work. If it doesn’t/if you need more in general help, feel free to ping me. 🙂

Can’t wait to see how the game turns out
