So one time i took my opponents other piece with a pawn i dont remember quite which piece but i believe it was another pawn, but i want on top of him, like i was beside it and i jumped ontop how did it happen to work that time but it never works any other time? I'm so bad at chess

Maybe it’s because you went on top of it and killed the poor pawn.

Usually we just politely capture the enemy pieces.
