How do you detect collision at the end of a matrix? I want to keep the player inside the matrix, maybe even program a visual barrier.
Just when you thought life was done beating your sorry ass down, it invites friends to help.

Supposing your matrix is 1000 units wide in x and z directions:

put this within the Do-Loop or in a gosub called from within the Do-Loop

if x#<0 then x#=0
if x#>1000 then x#=1000
if z#<0 then z#=0
if z#>1000 then z#=1000

hope it helps

you could detect the edge as above or make an invisbile plain object to collide against for the end points.
