The spawn works well for me. However, some flies appear on the rock and I cannot collected, as I collect more flies on the ground, fewer flies I can actually collect.

37,259 PointsTry reducing the spawn area. It's straightforward enough for the example of this simple game. If you were wanting it to be more sophisticated you'd add in checks where it was being spawned and if it's over the rocks or not (and to not spawn if so). Probably using ray casting but that's out of the scope for this course and so easiest thing is to reduce the area to be inside the rocks.

38,156 PointsI also had a problem with flies spawning on the rocks but simply changing the spawn area wasn't doing it for me. I eventually found out that I had changed the x and y coordinates of my terrain for some reason. Once I reset those values, the flies were spawning normally even without reducing the spawn area.
