Re: A89: FuZiOnZ Clarification
I'm not sure what this discussion was from, but pixel level collision
detection probably is too slow for x86 calculators.. at least not practical
if you plan on having more then a few sprites on the screen at once. You can
use a technique called 'limiting the bounding boxes' which increases
accuracy.. or, simply compose the ship of multiple sprites and those sprites
implement collision detection seperately (i.e. 1 sprite = hull, 2 sprites =
wing on each side)
