So I have a cursor that places a marker sprite and then a projectile follows that marker sprite. I want both the marker and the projectile to disappear when they touch. It largely works except when the projectile approaches the marker from the bottom. The projectile stops just short of touching the marker sprite. Anyone have an idea how to fix this?

The projectile and marker were 16x16 and were overlapping or something before they hit.

I can’t believe I overlooked that. Thank you for the fix.
