Collision check script error

[Pelikano]

Well it's pretty obvious that if you place a player.chat = "bla"; before an else if that your code will break:

PHP Code:

if (bla) {

}
player.chat = "hi";
else if (bla2) {

} 


This will obviously not work... so I don't think that it has anything to do with your syntax really lol

Ah yes, you're right.
I wasn't thinking straight when doing this it seems. Guess I was too frustrated trying to get my second collision check to work. Thanks.

Hezzy, can you suggest a simpler alternative to what I currently have?

Well, it's just pong. You can just do an axis-aligned bounding box check, or rectangle intersection. You don't have to use any trig or angle work, just some basic math.
