Possible to create colliders without sprites?

#1 I believe you can simply create a datablock with a size definition, no image definition, and a collision definition. Worth a shot, at least..

#2 Yes, just use a fxSceneObject2D. They don't render anything but have all the core capabilities such as collisions, physics, picking etc.

The ability to add entry/exit trigger zones is on the list though.

#3 You can setup a fxSceneObject2D just as you would a sprite. Setup its collisions and you will get a standard callback if anything hits it.

new fxSceneObject2D(goalTrigger) { scenegraph = t2dscenegraph; };
goalTrigger.setImmovable();
goalTrigger.setGroup( xxxxxx );
goalTrigger.setLayer( xxxxxx );
goalTrigger.setCollisionActive( false, true );
goalTrigger.setCollisionMasks( groupsToHit, layersToHit );

This object is setup to receive collisions from "groupsToHit"/"LayersToHit" (whatever you want here).

#4 I'm really confused now. ;)

Can you post your code? You do know how to size an object?

#5 @Rob: Not at all mate.

I'm about to go to sleep (so knackered), I'll check this out in the morning for you. :)

#6 Robert: You're being naughty again! ;)

As it mentions in the reference doco, "setCollisionScale()" only accepts parameters between 0 and 1 where 1 is the size of the object. If you want a bigger object then use the standard "setSize()" as you would any other T2D object.

Typically, you'd only want to use "setCollisionScale()" when you've got a standard polygon shape and just want to size it inside the objects size.

Other than that, you should be ready to rock. :)

#7 I can't draw for toffee, I wish I could, I really do!

Each to their own fu!

Good Luck.
