I'm trying to create a game where when an actor collides with another actor the game ends. however the actor that you are trying to avoid is a triangle shape. i noticed when you place that actor into game salad it has a rectangle around it and if the actor collides with that rectangle (empty space) and not even part of the triangle the game ends because it collided. Is there anyway to fix that?

    Constrain three actors together to form a triangle.
