How do I NOT use sprite shape instead of collision polygon

Hey all,

i am feeling pretty stupid right now as i work with construct 2 for a while now.

Today i encountered something strange which never happened to me before. the engine is using the sprite shape instead of the colission polygon to determine object overlapping.

This is the code:

here you can see the collision polygons on the left and the final detection on the right:

Is there any option that provokes this behavior? I might have changed it by accident, but cant find it.

Any suggestions?

kind regards

Can you do this with the spawning-sprite having a collssion mask of like 2 pixels by 2 pixels ?

It is bit weird to make a conclusion out of wath is shown, it is drawing at the origin of a sprite with a relative big collission mask, so relative to the collission polygones its drawing at an ofset. There is also an 'average' happening.

Also i dont see if you have a behavior on any of those sprites.

There where no behaviors set, just plain. i rly dont get what happened there, started a new project, did exactly the same and it worked perfectly...

Stupid as i am i overwrote the original file...

Working with construct for like 4 years now, never seen anything like this. Might be a strange, and very rare bug. he just used a wrong collision polygon, the drawing was just to make it clear...

Kind regards

yeah.. I've noticed this too.

Overlap seems to disregard the collision polygon and just check the square image dimensions. I figured it was just how construct2 handles it..? But it would be good if there were another condition that checks whether the polygons are overlapping.

Prominent normally it should just check for the collision poligon. but currently i cant reproduce this behavior anymore everthing works as intended now.

Hm.. yeah.. I just tryied to reproduce in a new project, but it works as intended with collision polygon.. I have experienced what you experienced though.. so I'll try to figure out what is happening..

edit: I can't seem to figure out how to reproduce either.
