Hi there, I have up to 200 objects so I have to have a good collision system! I guess this one is very bad, where the array objects at place 5 holds the ammount of objects and 150 the player object...

for a=1 to objects(5)
if object exist(a)
if object hit(150,a)
play sound 1
position object 150,-100,-100,-100
endif
endif
next a

I also thought up of using pythagoras to calculate the distance, but then it calculates the distance between the center of the objects, and if I have a very big sphere, it means that I can hit the sphere but the collision system says that I missed it :S

Does anyone have an idea of how to solve this? Or anotherway to get FAST collisions?

thanks in advance, Jurgen
