Not understanding the error

I am having problems with the code not working. We have tried different orders and different types of collisions with the same error. I’m at a loss why it is not working.

@ahiggins,

Line 10 is where the real error is happening. On line 10, the coin is being changed from a sprite into a number … maybe that is supposed to say coin.scale = 0.5;

Since coin is now a number, it throws the error later in the code when you are asking it to check collision between a sprite and a number.

Hope this helps!

Mike
