This might be a newbie question, but here we go:

What`s the difference between sprite hit() and sprite collision() ?

Can someone please quickly explain, because they seem to do the same thing...

thanks, TheComet

Sprite Collision() constantly returns 1 if two sprites are overlapping.
Sprite Hit() will only return 1 once every time two sprites touch and then it will reset to 0.


Thank you for your time.

Oh, I didn't know about the resetting... I just though the collision was for when they overlap and the hit was for when they touch... Oh well. So does that mean if you're using spritehit() for two sprites and they touch then it returns 1 then 0 and they keep touching but it keeps returning 0 until they stop touching and then touch again or what? This resetting thing doesn't make sense to me.

over and out

Yes it does.


On the other hand, you have different fingers.
