I wasn't able to find any information on this in the forum. How would you check the distance between two sprites? I'd like to check collision before moving the objects to ensure they don't get stuck, but the built in collision system seems to only work after you've moved the object.


Edit: This was a silly post to make... sorry, it's too early All I have to do is compare the X/Y location of each object.

I've made it a rule for myself to not post any programming questions until after 9 AM.

By then the coffee has kicked in.

distance = sqrt((x1-x2)^2 + (y1-y2)^2)
