i am rather new to DB as i am sure you can tell with the state of my code. i have a problem with setting up my collisions with the user and the wall. i have successfully set it up for wall (1) the wall to the left however putting in t same code for the other 3 walls doesnt work.
does anyone have any ideas.
please find code below

Two things: first please put your code is a code bracket. This will make it easier to read, won't stretch the page, etc. You can do this by highlighting your code and pressing the "code" button on the post toolbar. It also allows you to use indentation in your code.



Second, what is a#? I see it used a bit in your loop. Is it your y value for the character?

Yes it represents the y axis for the player position and for the position of the collisions.

thanks for the code tip
