Hi!!!
I’m a beginner at Thunkable and have tried to create an arrow shooting game-
> **[Thunkable](https://x.thunkable.com/copy/42ac4d02b71c44fc77d6c8f8de0d6948)**
However, once the arrow collides with the edge, the new arrow which is created does not shoot.
Please please please someone help me!!! i’m totally stuck :’(

Sorry for bugging so much, but the code already has that part coded as an event-
When button1 pressed, set speed of arrow to 100
This works for the first time, but not the second time when the arrow reloads…it keeps shooting

It should shoot only when u press the release button.
My idea of game is to add some sprite targets, which the player will target at.
So, once he shoots the 1st arrow, the bow reloads and the player can aim again and shoot by pressing the release button
