Point of intersection

What's the best way to get the x and y value of the point where two objects overlap? Or is this possible? Like a point of collision type thing.

be more specific, which types of object intersects: line/line, line/circle, circle/circle, line/convex polygon intersection...

Line/line.

This is pretty tricky. Let me see if I can work something out...

Hooray, I just did a math!

Here you are, sir!

Awesome! Thanks!   <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

here's another solution which counts line segments (not "infinite" lines)so line segments intersect not only because they are not parallel..

line-line intersection

edit: drag line end points

I would think that self.x< object2.x ?self.x+(distance(self.x,self.y, object2.x,object2.y)/2) :self.x-(distance(self.x,self.y, object2.x,object2.y)/2) would work.

Since distance() is based on the hotspots.

newt, not sure what you're getting at there. I'm interested...

The distance() between two points divided by 2, will give you a radius that you can use to get that x.

That is if both objects are of the same width, and height.

sqiddster could you re-seed the link to the example you provided in this post? :D

I'm looking for a simple as posible way to achieve this (I opened a topic)

Sargas try this.

sqiddster oh, that's awesome man, think it will work :3
