No, Jonathan, but you were CLOSE

What you would have to do is the following

typedef struct
{
int x,y,radius;
}OBJECT;

OBJECT stuff[2];

Should this work?



typedef struct
{
int x,y,radius;
}OBJECT;

OBJECT stuff[2];

if ((stuff[1].x-stuff[2].x)^2+(stuff[1].y-stuff[2].y)^2) <= (stuff[1].radius + stuff[2].radius)^2
{
// we have a collision
}

Hope I''ve helped.

Ooops, the above should''ve read as follows:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
typedef struct
{
int x,y,radius;
}OBJECT;

OBJECT stuff[2];

if ((stuff[1].x-stuff[2].x)^2+(stuff[1].y-stuff[2].y)^2) <= (stuff[1].radius + stuff[2].radius)^2
{
// we have a collision
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hope I''ve helped.

The way to do that would be to find the distance from the centre of the object to the line/interval , and compare this distance with your bounding circle''s radius (if it is less than the radius, a collision has occurred)

Sorry I can''t remember the formula for distance from a point to a line off the top of my head (too early in the morning here )... it should be pretty easy to find though.
