*****help with collision*****

Mikv616

Hi everybody i wanted to ask how can i make an invisible actor follow ontop of an image that way when and object collides with the invisible actor it collides with it. I wanted to know how to do this because I am making a game where I have a whole lot of actors such as a bird for example and when it collides with the main actor which is a custom object i don't want it to collide with the corner of the image file but instead with the actors custom shape. And since game salad doesn't have custom shapes available for collisions i wanted to know if its possible for me to have a small invisible actor instead following ontop of my main actor that way when a object or bird collides with it, it doesn't end up looking like it was box around my image that triggered the collision and instead the custom shape of the object itself.

Hi Mikv616,

yes you can do that, you need to use the Constrain Attribute on the invisable actore to constrain it's X and Y values to the actor you want it to match.
