Hi,

Sorry if this is unclear:

I have made this small game where the idea is 2 find a building avoiding the other buildings. I know how 2 detect a collision and when the human model and the wrong building colides it plays a sound.
When the model hits the right building ( a radar) it also plays the sound. I cant get it to detect that it has hit the radar rather than another building.

Also, i would like it to to clear the screen, ie the matrix, the objects, textures, backdrop, the sprites and bitmaps so that i can start a new level
Another thing to happen when it detects the collision is for it to play an animation that i have made
Thanks

check out lesson 25 for a sliding collision example that works on most pcs.


Also, i would like it to to clear the screen, ie the matrix, the objects, textures, backdrop, the sprites and bitmaps so that i can start a new level

you have to manage this manually and track each object / sound /image/ array

deleting them as required and usually in order helps sanity

Another thing to happen when it detects the collision is for it to play an animation that i have made.

the above lesson25 will have a space to insert the play animation feature just after the collision hit aspect.

all you need to do is know the object number of the player and the number for the radar building, so say the player is object 1 and the radar building is object 2

if object collision(1,2) then gosub target_hit

the numbers in the brackets are the objects you want to check collision for, then in target_hit you play your sound and the animation, then delete your objects, animations etc and start again, cheers.
