Enabling/Disabling collisions results in all instances of an object having its collisions Enabled/Disabled. That makes things more complicated having to add more objects and events just to filter collisions.

If you have 10 physics enemies, and one platform. You want enemy(1) to jump down (not collide with platform so it can move down) .Disabling collisions will disable collisions for all enemies and all will fall down.

If you want individual control than you need 10 different physics objects as enemies and that means events for each enemy. This is a simple case, what if you want more enemies and more platforms? This just limits what you can do.

But if you had collision filtering per instance than you just need one enemy object and one platform object and add how much ever of them you want.

Ah crap I did not see that it is for C3. I got to this thread from google search. But I think there should be some similarities between the two behaviors. I'm guessing nothing new is added from C2. I managed to get collision filtering working but I have run into some bugs. If I fix them I'll reply to this thread and reference you again. Then maybe we can see what can be done for the C3 behavior.

Are you still looking for collision filtering in the standard C2 Physics engine? Reply if you still need it I can help you out.

Oh thanks. I just saw your example files, and didn't think about checking the properties bar. I didn't see the 'Learn how' button at your site and missed it. Sorry for the error on my part.

It was nothing. Just trying to call a function when 'All scripts were loaded' fired. Nothing else.

I just made this now since you asked. I was checking the console for errors. It comes up as html2canvas is undefined.

I just get 'html2canvas' is undefined. But I think that's more of an error in my part in trying to make it work with your plugin. And it's actually not a screenshot but just builds the representation of the page or element on a canvas. Again, I'm a noob at js and don't know what I'm doing.

html2canvas is a way of taking screenshots of form elements like buttons. Normally the paster plugin or the canvas snapshot feature can't paste or grab buttons, lists etc, but apparently this html2canvas does something to mimic these form elements in style and then takes a screenshot of it which we can use.

I tried to use it, but honestly I haven't got the slightest clue how to get it to work or if it is even possible.
