Heheh, man those were the days, 8 months ago too!
I never did quite figure why ImagesCollide didn't work.
In the end I gave up and since then have been using my own bounding box and circle collision code that I wrote ever since. If that's making you pull your hair out then you should have a tinker with drawrect and then try to resist not making a '4 line inside a function' MyDrawRect function ;)
> I'm starting to despise Blitzmax. :/
Don't despair Dave! It sorta gets better later, I've had 12 months of crazy Blitzmax things to deal with.
Besides, just wait until you start putting sound in your game.....
