Hi, new to this site
I'm a beginner at programming and have a school project that involves remaking the Atari parachute game in Visual C# 2010 Express.
My question is when i have released the parachute how do i delete the object when it collides with the birds.
Any help would be great. As mentioned before I'm new to this so please give easy to follow steps.
Thanks.
(There is some code referring to a class called Plane but i ended up finding a different way to do the plane but i didn't want to delete it yet in case i need).

Birds Class:
[using System;
truck class:
[using System;
looks good stuff so far (Please use [ code ] tags to paste code, it was hard to read.) Look into the code i put above and think about how to integrate it
