rem Make pickup
make object sphere 1000, 0.2
position object 1000, 5, 1, 5

(then set object collision)
rem Collision
if object collision (1000, 1)

First duplicate the "pickup" by either using clone object or instance object. Since you are using a sphere, you can just make object.
Second you can either make a loop to test each object against one another or you can get a .dll like sparky's to do it for you. Considering you are using spheres, I would simply use DBP's internal collision detection:
In the help, go to "Commands" "Basic 3D" "COLLISION COMMANDS". That's a good place to start.

The fastest code is the code never written.

Use a FOR/NEXT loop to cycle through your pickup objects. For example, say your pickup objects were objects number 1000 to 2000. You would check each one like this:




Guns, cinematics, stealth, items and more!
