Re: Simple breakout in Hollywood

Good point. I shall try and correct that.

The obvious next step would be to have multiple levels

Re: Simple breakout in Hollywood

As ArtBlink seems to have vanished, I thought I would give it a go and finish his code as an exercise. I changed a few things: - Translated everything to English from French (Thank you Google). - Doubled the width of the bricks. - Added a way to end the game and start over - Added a variable for bal...

Re: Collision maps/masks

Yes, I think it would make sense to do it like this. I've just added a new #SPRITE_VS_BRUSH collision type that you can use in the next version. Until then, just keep a copy of your sprite as a brush and use type #BRUSH instead. Wow.. that was quick! I can't believe how great the support for Hollyw...

Re: Collision maps/masks

Well.. Again.. I don't know if this is common practice, but I have seen this in other game engines.. https://i.imgur.com/PQGDbcJ.png The White area would be the collision area and the Black is where I can drive my car.. I thought maybe this would be made in the most easy way using with the car as a ...

Re: Collision maps/masks

Well, sprites versus layers won't work because sprites and layers are mutually exclusive. #BRUSH_VS_SPRITE could be added if there's demand for it. I see! I'm not sure what's common practice, as I'm not an experienced programmer. How would you set up collision with a masked out area on the screen? ...

Re: Collision maps/masks

Have you had a look at Collision() ? If this doesn't do what you need, please explain why it doesn't serve your needs :) Hi, I'm starting to suspect I'm an idiot, but my main issue was not being able to do any type of collision between sprites and brushes. Now I realize I could probably just do a c...

Collision maps/masks

Hi! I'm trying to make a simple top-down car game where the car stays in center and the background moves in all directions below. I have set this up with a sprite for the car and the background as a large brush. How do I create a collision mask for the background image? I can't see any documentation...

I second this request.
Looking forward to a fix.. :)

That would make the group seam like a tech support group, and that was not the intension.
I just want Hollywood to be more visible to the public, so I created a place that will help people discover it.
