Im trying out the Box 2d Functions,

and I cannot find/Understand how to make the BG sprites interact with the in game sprites, at least the way I want them to do it,

Basically, as the Tutor on the AppGameKit Site shows an angry birds type, with the ball,
Im trying to get the Ball, in this case to roll down a slope,
but when I add the sprite for the bg, it maps as a circle or square,
Ive not tried out the Poly map for it yet.

but I was wondering if it could be mapped to the sprites outline, as its a 255 png image with colour number 255 as transparent.

SetSpriteShape(Sprite, 3) will set the shape around its outline. Although it will not outline anything which is concaved...

SetSpriteShape - The shape to use for this sprite, 0=no shape, 1=circle, 2=box, 3=polygon

Thanks Funnell7,

That was great,

I guess if I wanted a concave, it would be programmed poly, so not too good, at least by me.

Yeah, concave is a lot trickier. Although Baxslash has created a very useful tool for this. Check this link out...
