Pong Paddle ball collision [rect to rect]
Author
I've looked on google to see how to get the collision test for the paddle and ball, but I couldn't find anything that helped me, and I tried to think what exactly I have to test but whenever I tried to test that the ball just went right through the paddle =(
Can someone tell me what x,y,w,h values i would be testing? its a rect to rect test, C++ language SDL api. I got the ball to bounce off teh walls and to reset and register as a point if it hits the side, but I can't get the collision for the ball and rect to work.
Thanks.
My simple check involves seeing if:
box1's X is > box2's x+width
box1's x+width < box2's X
Repeated for as many axes as you need. In this case I'm not really checking for collision, I'm checking for a non-collision (ie, if either of those statements above is true, the boxes can't be colliding). If none of the conditions are true, then boxes are colliding.
