I’m starting to learn Phaser, so this is a very beginner’s question.

I’m trying to set up a collision between bullet and target. When the collision happens, I want the bullet to disappear and the target to stay where it is.

What I’m doing is:

```javascript
scene.physics.add.collider(target, bullet, doCollision);

```

And then

```javascript
function doCollision() {
    bullet.disableBody(true, true);    
}

```

When the collision happens though, target bounces away. How do I prevent that from happening?

Set the target’s body to immovable = true and it will not be affected by other objects colliding with it.  
`target.body.immovable = true;`

Also you can use `overlap()` instead:

```javascript
scene.physics.add.overlap(target, bullet, doCollision);

```
