Hey guys, Im a total Blitzmax newb so bear with me. Is there a way to check the color of a pixel? Here's a link of my screenshot (17k, small):

I wanted to figure out how to have the guys run ALONG the terrain, and I was thinking of basically checking the color of the terrain beneath him (the orange stuff). Any clues? I saw the collideimage functions, but wasnt sure if it was overkill.

Oh and can someone point me to the FAQs on how to submit code in a code window? I've seen the link before but naturally I cant find it now! Thaaanks!
