collision detection problem

I'm having a problem with collision detecting in drag and drop, whenever my spacecraft shoots at an asteroid it creates a white "blob". Also, I'm not sure how to make the different DnD blocks branch off into different area's but I could just not be moving them around correctly, that could be the source of my problem, but I can't be sure. I'm new to GameMaker Studio 2

If anyone could help me, that would be greatly appreciated!


I'm following this tutorial series:

Please elaborate on what a "white blob" is.

Here's a better image

whenever I shoot the asteroids, a "white blob" (is the best way I can describe it) stacks up whenever I shoot it more and more.

What is the blob? You added it, right? Or did aliens randomly inject stuff into your project?
(Hint: if you use the Debug Mode, you can view a list of all objects in the game room; wait until you get a bunch of those blobs and then it should be obvious from the list what they are)


My guess is that you forgot to destroy the asteroids when shot (or something similar), so the collision between the bullet and the asteroid keeps going forever and it creates more and more blobs.
