Constant Contact Reporting

Post by ceramicpig »

Hi, hopefully I haven't missed a response to this elsewhere in the forums. Sadly, this is yet another physics question.

I've discovered that the collision callback only reports a collision when a sensor first contacts another shape. Is it possible to get a continued collision report every frame that it is intersecting with another object? Alternatively, is there a built-in way to check if two objects are currently intersecting? I can see how to work around the above problem if I can do this but I don't want to write my own intersection checking if I don't have to.

Am I just missing something obvious?

Thanks!

You did... I don't think rude (the main dev) said anything about implementing the callbacks for the next version though. There's not much you can do, except for hoping rude stops by, and maybe reply to the feature request (in the issue tracker).

Ack! Okay, I guess I'll need to be more diligent in my searching in the future. Thanks, though, for steering me towards the Issue Tracker (I hadn't seen it because apparently I'm blind) and the previous discussions on this.

All right, I think I can figure out how to get around this. Thanks!
