Hi there. I've been playing around with DB's included sliding collision source (example 25) and have found that in running the code against a maze of static objects I get the occassional collision errors, in that I cannot pass through some open areas.

Has anybody come across this before, and know of a solution at all? I cannot see any errors in the collision code, and have tried leaving a space between objects (in case of calculation errors), but to no avail.

Using static objects, there has to be a static collision box around each area that is to be collided with. Perhaps your collision areas are overlapping at some points? So, if you have a maze that is a static object or collection of static objects, you have to put a static collision box appropriately sized for each wall.

Enjoy your day.
