Thanks for all the help guys but I'm still not getting the bigger picture here If I draw a rectangle on a piece of paper and then mark out each section of that rectangle like so

|

how would I get it so that my program knows how to intersect and also how to intersect

I had a thought if I could make a big massive picture and basically make a mask of that image like so

Unmasked image



Masked Image




That I could then Code it exactly like this probably going to be wrong here but its a guess

int Intersects(SDL_Rect HitBoxRect SDL_Rect ImageRect)
{ //if hitbox exists
if(HitBoxRect)
{
  
//do a loop that checks for value equality
for(count; count < 1; count++)
{
//they collide
if(HitBoxRect.x  && ImageRect.x = 100)
{
//move image downwards by 1
ImageRect.x -= 1;
}  
}
}
		

is this correct or somewhere near correct I want the simplest method  : )
