UPBGE 0.3 object collision

Game Engine Game Engine Support and Discussion

So in UPBGE version 2.7.5 you can simply set an object to static and using the Components via script you can check collisions with another object by doing this:

    def update(self):
        self.collision()

    def collision(self):
        if self.object.collide("player_1")[0]:
            self.dir_x = 0.1

but I can’t figure out how to do the same in 0.3
I tried looking into the 3 collision functions found in object

        print(self.object.collisionGroup)
        print(self.object.collisionCallbacks)
        print(self.object.collisionMask)

but they don’t seem to be what I need. Can anyone help me? Thank you.

A little more info. This is a tutorial to create a simple ‘PONG’ game.

the two rectangles are set to ‘character’ under physics and the ball is ‘static’.

This works in upbge 0.3.4 alpha / development build

Yeah, I figured that out. It’s awesome, I’m very happy using the alpha build. I feel it’s so much more clear and easy to read.
