Hey guys, im still learning and so far whenever i plug in the code for
If (ImageOverlap(alien\image,alien\x,alien\y,Laser\image,laser\x,laser\y))


and when i finish the rest of the parameters it says "object does not exist", but i have the lasers image in the same place as the source code. Whats happening??
