collision with lots-o-lines
i have an object moving diagonally, it basically teleports because of how fast it is going.
I need to be able to find out if, and at the exact point it would hit another object if it were actually moving
so far what i have is that it would cross the axis lines of the object but would hit at the last one it crossed (assuming that if one dosent cross you make sure it is already colliding) i need to be able to find the order it crosses all of these axis lines
I am also VERY open to suggestions about other ways to do this but it is hard and i suck at math

This is one of my favorite articles, it is a great way to detect intersecting lines, doesn't rely on cumbersome region objects and is very fast.

Love the way microsofts pages looks in FF some times...:)
BTW this looks like it is for 2D...was that what you wanted?

Blimey, no i'm on IE today. They won't let us install anything worth having (FF for example).

Re: collision with lots-o-lines
anyway, i am going to go with a bad code that uses y = mx + b because i suck at programming (have only been doing it since september)

Reading the words actually helps with that problem. If you can get it to display properly that is! :lol: no problem in IE though (for a change)
