  The collision is a rectangle, and has to stay that way for the sake of the game:( I'm not sure what is causing it, but regardless of what I try I haven't gotten it to work properly. It seems to have a problem right as the collision steps slightly higher as the gravity angle changes, I thought it was the same thing. Apologizes if I hijacked your thread.

  I found I have the same problem in the gravity based side of my game. when you are moving over rounded areas you can not jump, you have to stop before it will alow you to jump.

  here is a link from the tuts section below. It will demonstrate perfectly.

  Agree there are artifacts. As a temporary work around, I got rid of them using effects. but things like opacity still only work sometimes. In my current shadowlight setup opacity really does not work, the light radius as well. Seems there are lots of anomalies that need sorting but it's a brilliant start.

  Or you could take a look at timers. If it's 3 seconds or 3 min's it will still work the same, https://www.scirra.com/manual/167/timer

  If you need more info post back after you check it out. Regardless both methods should work:)
