i am confused about a few things. i would like to be able to make the buttons become invisible (i have that) after being dropped and also, return to their starting location (this is what i need help with). also, i notice that unless you drop the button in a specific location, the target will not update. is there a way for me to make a larger area? when you test my movie you’ll see that it takes about 90000 times to drop it in the “right spot”. thanks for the help!
