Test collision before adding new Body

[assofohdz]

Hi

Before I add a body to the world I would like to check if that action would result in collisions. Is there a sensible way to do that? (this is in regards to placing towers in a tower defense game, I would like to check if the new tower would overlap with any existing towers)

Kind regards

You can use the family of 'detect' methotds on the world.

Code: Select all

public boolean detect(Convex convex,
                      java.util.List<DetectResult> results)
