I need help with collision code. I want to keep the player from falling through floors, pretty much. Help?<\/p>\n

EDIT: Okay, I’ve got some good collision detection, but there’s something wrong with my moving code.<\/p>\n

bool checkCollision(SDL_Rect &movable, double &vx, double &vy, SDL_Rect solid, bool move) {
\n int moveLeft = movable.x;
\n int moveTop = movable.y;
\n int moveRight = moveLeft + movable.w;
\n int moveBottom = moveTop + movable.h;<\/p>\n

int solidLeft = solid.x;
\n int solidTop = solid.y;
\n int solidRight = solidLeft + solid.w;
\n int solidBottom = solidTop + solid.h;<\/p>\n

int clipLeft = max(moveLeft, solidLeft);
\n int clipTop = max(moveTop, solidTop);
\n int clipRight = min(moveRight, solidRight);
\n int clipBottom = min(moveBottom, solidBottom);<\/p>\n

if(clipLeft == clipRight || clipTop == clipBottom)
\n return false;<\/p>\n

if(!move)
\n return true;<\/p>\n

int clipWidth = clipRight – clipLeft;
\n int clipHeight = clipBottom – clipTop;<\/p>\n

if(clipWidth solidX) {
\n \/\/ moving to right
\n movable.x += solidRight – moveLeft;
\n } else {
\n \/\/ moving to left
\n movable.x -= moveRight – solidLeft;
\n }
\n } else {
\n \/\/ moving along y axis
\n vy = 0;
\n int moveY = moveTop + movable.h \/ 2;
\n int solidY = solidLeft + solid.h \/ 2;
\n if(moveY > solidY) {
\n \/\/ moving to bottom
\n movable.y += solidBottom – moveTop;
\n } else {
\n \/\/ moving to top
\n movable.y -= moveBottom – solidTop;
\n }
\n }<\/p>\n

return true;
\n }<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
