Many Bullets, Many Enemies (Collision Help)

Hi all

I need advice on how to solve a problem I am having.

I am having problems getting correct collision info using CollideImage

I am returning an array of all objects on the same layer/

So for all bullets I am calling collideimage to test if they collide with any enemies.

My code is shaky at best and when I start adding tests for other objects, results get worse.

Would you suggest I try another method ?

The reason I chose CollideImage and returning the array of objects hit, is that I wouldn't have to check for every enemy for every bullet. CollideImage does that for me.

I didnt want to have to do this: pseudo

for each bullet
for each enemy
checkcollision
next
next

here is my collision code

both bullet and enemy are on layer1.

ResetCollisions(1)
colList:Object[] = CollideImage(bulletImg,xpos,ypos,0,ENEMY_LAYER,0)

For Local i:Int=1 To colList.length
    If(TEnemy(colList[i-1]))
         DrawText "Collision!",10,10
    end if
Next
