Actor collisions?

[phractus]

Is there a way without havin to do a bunch of scripting to have it so actors cant move Into another object? I havent gotten the collision controls yet:(....

I found the code that Jazzebob wrote for circular objects, but wasnt sure where/how to use it.

If u want to stop on collision with another actor, u can do the following without scripting :

On Actor,
add Event Collision with repeat enabled
add Action To Anteriour Position

Close
Close

and if u want ur actor to step on another actor an collision (like to walk on a step, a circle on the ground...) u can use Physical Response instead of Anteriour Position.

Hope that i helped u

Ok i tried this a few different ways with no luck. Do i put this on the walking actor or on the actors to calide with. Im ganna go check out some of the tutorials see if they have any examples.

What do u want ur actor to do exactely ?

[phractus]

I just want it to stop at the exterer of other actors(buildings, walls..etc). Ill play with it more and figure it out. Im wondering if b/c i used the actor.xscreen, actor.yscreen for movement if the colision works of another variable maybe?

If its not big you can send it to phishpage@yahoo.com. If its something big i need to set up my pop on this computor(just put linux on this week).

Ok i got our example. I think im having problems b/c of how i set up the movement. Instead of using x+=3 for movement i used EventActor.xscreen +=3. Im ganna play with the variables and stuff and see how it effects things. Thanks for the example.

after having problems figuring out anterioor position i think im just ganna use the CollisionFree in my movement code, see if that works.
