How Do I Change the Touch Field of a Moving Actor to as Specific Shape

uhyana

Basically I have a bunch of different shaped actors spawning and moving to the right, but the touch field for each object is a square box around each actor. My actors are .pngs so even if I crop it as much as I can you could touch a part of the actor in the corner where and it would still move it. How do I make only touches inside the shape of an object touchable?

You could get the magnitude between the object and the touch and only fire your rules off if magnitude < whatever.

that might work unless your actor is shaped funny

For example this pizza paddle:

I have a similar actor I created myself. However, no matter how I crop it a user can touch in the bottom left or right corner and the actor will detect the touch.
