I am trying create a claw machine style raffle picker for an event I have coming up. I want the names of the participants to bounce around a defined area and not the whole screen. I created the defined area using tilemap walls, but it doesn’t look like sprites made using the sprite text extension recognize these as walls and pass right through them. Anyone have an idea for a workaround or see if I have an error in my code?

Looks like text sprites are set to default to be ghosts. Setting that to false makes it work

Oh!!! And that explains why my sprite overlaps with the text sprites weren’t working either. Thank you for the help. I appreciate it.
