Does the game detect collision when the character/actor touches something, or does it only detect when the entire "block" hits?

Like if I've got a diagonal line, will the line have an invisible square surrounding it that marks the true detection points for collision, or does Game Editor ignore background material and only look at the visual representation of the actor itself?

Game Editor works with a pixel perfect collision detection system.
So, if your actor is a diagonal line, only the line will be used in detection.

Makslane, may I make another request for future GE versions?

I would like to be able to set the collision mask to be separate from the animation.

Although I do not truly need it, it would be a welcome expansion to GE, and at least several others would make good use of it.
