Well, we all have to start somewhere. I'm making a very basic game, you're a ball, and I'm trying to make it a bigger ball when you roll over this cube. But, obviously, it doesn't work.



Well, that's my "code". If anyone could look over it and give me a tip, if there's an easier way to do it, tell me how to make the existing code actually work, that'd be nice ^_^. If this post isn't clear enough, I'll try to make it better.

Thanks in advance.

Your trying to detect if the ball is in the exact position of the cube, meaning they both have to be at the one tiny point on the screen. You also were deleting the object to resize it.
Use object collision to detect hit and scale object to resize it.
Replace everything under the label "_enlarge_ball:" with...

Hope that helps, next time read up on all the commands in the help files/manual.

Note: The above I didn't say, your just crazy.

You can also scale it to whatever size you want say ... double the size each time it passes it.
