Collision problems

Hi all.

I'm having a little problem with collisions.

A green cube spins in space, and using the arrow keys you can push up against it.
Collisions are happening as I can't walk through the cube, but I want the cube to turn red when I do collide with it.
I'm not sure why the call to EntityCollided isn't working.

Can someone please help?

Thanks for any suggestions.

	If KeyDown(205) TurnEntity camera_pivot,0,-1,0

	TurnEntity cube,0.5,0.5,0.5

it should be:

If EntityCollided(camera_pivot,THEM) EntityColor cube,255,0,0

Thanks bram32.

Unfortunately, this doesn't quite fix it.
If I have 2 cubes, both with an EntityType=THEM, colliding with either one will only colour the first cube red.

The way the blitz collisions work, is that the colliding entity must be a moving one, and the entity your colliding into must be static, non moving. That said, your error seems to be in entity collided.

If EntityCollided(cube,US) EntityColor cube,255,0,0

The first parameter of the command is entity your wanting to check, which is the camera_pivot. The next parameter is the entity TYPE of collision. Which your wanting to check against the cube, which has THEM type. so:

If EntityCollided(camera_pivot,THEM) EntityColor cube,255,0,0

Entitycollided returns a handle to the collided entity.

bump = EntityCollided(camera_pivot, THEM) 
If bump > 0 Then EntityColor bump,255,0,0

I tried it over here too bram, Works fine. I'm started typing, went for summit to eat, forgot to click post. By the time i'd clicked post, you'd already said the answer :D

Excellent!
Thanks to both of you for your help - especially the tip about EntityCollided returning a handle.
