Returned object array and Collide image

Hello!

I have a problem with CollideImage and the return object array.

This code in the Method Test_Collision2() throws
an error:

Local temp_ball:Tball
temp_ball = Tball(anz_collisions[x])

I think it wrong Casting.
How can i do it right?

Help welcomed

Hi,

When you use CollideImage to write to a collision layer, you must provide an object to be returned when a later collision occurs. You don't appear to be doing this anywhere.

Try this link it has some collision helper functions.

Hi!

I thought with this peace of code i provide the object.

 
...

Local anz_collisions:Object[]
		
		ResetCollisions
		For Local temp_ball:Tball = EachIn ballList	
	
			If temp_ball <> Self
				'Write to Writemask
     			CollideImage temp_ball.ball, temp_ball.x, temp_ball.y, 0, 0, 1
			EndIf
		Next
		
		'Test Collision	
		anz_collisions = CollideImage(ball, x, y, 0, 1, 0)

...

@Force
The helper funktions are working (see Method Test_Collision).


I understand, that CollideImage returns a object array.
But how is the returned array managed? (The object array confuses me a litle bit :-) )

In the code above anz_collisions is a object array. Probably
3 collisions are detected (anz_collisions [0]-[2]).

Is the returned object a Tball type?? (in the above code)

I thought

local temp_ball:Tball = Tball(anz_collisions[0]) works.

But it does´nt.

A little tip, please. Perhaps i mess it all around.
