I was getting frustrated at some code then I had the idea of printing the

object collision(1,0)

To the screen. To my surprise my sky sphere was colliding with the model. Are the primitives solid? Im wondering how to sort this out but the only solution I used that worked was removing the sky sphere. Heres some code.
Thanks.

Not sure what you think the problem is :-| , I think a primitive is solid unless you set it to polygon collision. Why do you have collision with the sphere anyway, if it is always position the same place as the player. You could switch it off.

At little more information could be helpful.

I get what the problem is. Dr BOK is saying that object collision(1,0) constantly returns the value of the sky sphere (due to object 1 being inside it).

well why do u want it to collide with the scy sphere in the first place? just make it so when the player moves, the sphere moves with it, that way you will never run into it, but you can still see it, if thats what ur asking

Yes thats what I was doing haXor, but it kept returning the collision of the sky sphere.
Mentor - I must have overlooked (more like not knew it existed ) that command , it was the solution. Thanks a lot.
