Title: How to check if characters are visually overlapping? - WORKAROUND
Post by: johanvepa on Tue 27/09/2016 21:49:47
Is there an easy way to determine if the visuals of two characters are overlapping? Like AreThingsOverlapping, but without being triggered by transparent parts of the characters?

There was this pixel-perfect collision module by SSH:

Thank you for the suggestion. I opted for a clumsy solution of having two more characters present, one flat and one tall, invisible, then check for collission with all three. This mimics collission with the visible parts of the character in question.

The mod is no longer there, by the way.
