collideSprites()

Purpose

Collides two sprites

Description

Syntax

c = collideSprites( spriteA, spriteB, resolve1, resolve2 )

Arguments

spriteA handle of first sprite

spriteB handle of second sprite

resolve1 if true the first sprite can be moved by the collision

resolve2 if true the second sprite can be moved by the collision

c.exists true if collision occurred

c.a first sprite in the collision

c.b second sprite in the collision

*c.resolution_vector representing how sprite A was pushed during the collision

*c.resolution_vector representing how sprite B was pushed during the collision

Example

image = loadImage( "Untied Games/Enemy small top C", false )
ship = []
for i = 0 to 2 loop
    ship[i] = createSprite( image )
    setSpriteImage( ship[i], image )
    setSpriteScale( ship[i], { 5, 5 } )
    setSpriteCollisionShape( ship[i], SHAPE_TRIANGLE, 25, 25, 180 )
    ship[i].show_collision_shape = true
repeat
setSpriteRotation( ship[0], 270 )
setSpriteSpeed( ship[0], { 240, 0 } )
setSpriteSpeed( ship[1], { 0, 120 } )
setSpriteColour( ship[1], { 0, 0, 1, 1 } )
setSpriteLocation( ship[0], { 0, gHeight() / 2 } )
setSpriteLocation( ship[1], { gWidth() / 2, 0 } )
while ship[0].x < gWidth() loop
    clear()
    updateSprites()
    collideSprites( ship[0], ship[1] )
    drawSprites()
    update()
repeat
