I'm simply wanting to be able to make a side scrolling platformer. I have not made the scrolling part yet, i'm first of all wanting to be able to make objects which my character can walk along.

I know I haven't done a lot but I really can't find much help at all for 2D games. How do I make my main character (being bloke.bmp) be able to collide with for example the line I have drawn?

Cheers

well, its a lot easier if you make the line into a sprite, and then you can use sprite collision commands. Look into the create/delete bitmap commands and the sprite collision commands.

using just the line would require you to work out where the line was and see if any of the sprites were touching it. this is quite complicated, so I would recommend just using sprites.

Part of solving the problem is actually noticing that the problem is there in the first place

Cheers.
