VB 2008 Accessing Physics Easily?

[Fabian_Russ]

I got my physics to work.

I have a question tho.

 

Sub CheckForCollision()

If Picturebox1.Bounds.IntersectsWith(Picturebox2.Bounds) = True Then

If Picturebox1.Bounds.Top = Picturebox2.Bounds.Bottom - 1 Then

Collision = 1

End If

End If

 

If Picturebox1.Bounds.Left = Picturebox2.Bounds.Right - 2 Then

Collision = 2

End If

If Picturebox1.Bounds.Right = Picturebox2.Bounds.Left + 1 Then

Collision = 3

End If

If Picturebox1.Bounds.Bottom = Picturebox2.Bounds.Top + 1 Then

Collision = 4

End If

If Picturebox1.Bounds.IntersectsWith(Picturebox1.Bounds) = False Then

Collision = 0

End If

 

Picturebox1 is my player

Picturebox2 is a building.

Is there anyway to not have to code this huge code for everything in the form?

Like, Every Item that I have gives out a True or False Statement? Can I make that True or False Statement tell if it needs to set the physics?

OR Will I have to keep entering in that same code for every object in the game?

You might be better avoiding pictureboxes, and just use GDI / GDI+ to render the sprites.
