I have two instances called and running. They interact with each
other and I would like one of the instances to cease to exist in the
second round based on a given condition. How do you kill an instance?
The code is below. I have Red and Yellow as my instances and I want
them to die when life = 0 and not show up in the preceding rounds of
the game.
Thank you.
