Do not give me any irrelevent crap like "treat Mario like a box." I need to know one thing, and one thing only. I want a direct answer tyo this question: This is how to position the sensor. Create events like Set Y position to Y("Mario") +/- n Set X Position to X("Mario") +/- t Now, all I want is the simple answer to this: I know where I want the sensor, but I don't know what values n and t require to get it in that position. Now, then. Is there any way for me to solve the problem, maybe by placing the sensor manually, to find out what values I should enter for n and t? If so, tell me. -------------------- When I let people know I'm autistic, most of them think I said "optimistic." So I correct them and explain the difference between the two: Whereas autism is a mental disorder, optimism is a severe mental disorder.

Always
--> Set X position of "sensor" to: X("Mario")
--> Set Y position of "sensor" to: Y Bottom("Mario")

I don't know if TGF has the Y Bottom action or not

If it doesn't:

Always
--> Set X position of "sensor" to: X("Mario")
--> Set Y position of "sensor" to: Y("Mario") + (Pixel distance from Mario's hot spot to his lowermost pixel - height of the sensor)*

*may require adjustment
