Basically the game consists of a basket that the player moves across the screen, the aim of the game is for the player to catch balls falling from the top of the screen. I am currently trying to add collision detection between the balls and the basket, but am facing difficulties namely, implementing this collision detection. I am new to swift, sprite kit and app development, so please help. Any help would be appreciated. Another problem I am facing is that all the balls are falling in the centre of the screen. A line of code is supposed to execute when, the ball hits the basket and following that the ball should disappear, please help as I am new to Spritekit.
import SpriteKit
class GameScene: SKScene {
var basket = SKSpriteNode()
let actionMoveRight = SKAction.moveByX(50, y: 0, duration: 0.2)
let actionMoveLeft = SKAction.moveByX(-50, y: 0, duration: 0.2)
//let physicsBody = SKPhysicsBody(texture: , size: 3500)
override func didMoveToView(view: SKView) {
/* Setup your scene here */
self.physicsWorld.gravity = CGVectorMake(0.0, -0.5)
self.backgroundColor = SKColor.whiteColor()
basket = SKSpriteNode(imageNamed: "basket")
basket.setScale(0.5)
basket.position = CGPointMake(self.size.width/2, self.size.height/8)
basket.size.height = 50
basket.size.width = 75
self.addChild(basket)
let updateAction = SKAction.runBlock {
var choice = arc4random_uniform(3)
switch choice {
case 1 :
var ball1 = SKSpriteNode(imageNamed: "redBall")
ball1.position = CGPointMake(self.size.width/3, self.size.height)
ball1.setScale(0.5)
ball1.size.height = 20
ball1.size.width = 30
ball1.physicsBody = SKPhysicsBody(circleOfRadius: ball1.size.height / 2.75)
ball1.physicsBody!.dynamic = true
self.addChild(ball1)
println("0")

var ball2 = SKSpriteNode(imageNamed: "redBall")
ball2.position = CGPointMake(self.size.width/5, self.size.height)
