General / Collision Detection Function Doing Weird Things

« on: June 12, 2011, 06:57:42 am »

Thank you for a quick answer! However, it did not work. The player still goes through the blocks, but that weird thing where he goes the opposite direction is gone now!

I think that, for some reason, the collision isn't being detected somehow, because when I changed the sign, I got the opposite direction glitch.

All my code just in case

I've been looking at Some simple Collision Detection Algorithms and they all look very nice, but none of them have worked so far!

What Will happen is my character will move in the opposite directions (like W goes down, A goes right)  if I include the function in my Main Loop. I know it's not the movement code, as I've taken out the collision algorithm and it worked fine. And to add insult to injury, the you don't even collide wit the stupid walls! javascript:emoticon(':cry:')

P.S Yeah the codes not great, but I'm going for an incredibly simple first project game. Sorta like Pac-Man. Yes I know a tile system would be better, but I don't feel like setting one up for my first project in SFML when free movement will work fine when I can get it to work.

Thanks in Advance! javascript:emoticon(':D')
