Collision detection between gui controls.

Alright well, in a game i'm making I need to know if these 2 gui controls hit so, i tryed many methods i'm wondering why this one doesn't work, and or how I can make it work

PHP Code:


		
			
  // ron_dot & ron_plr are the gui control names

   for(  i = 0;  i < 2;  i = i + .01 ) {

    

    if( ron_dot.x - ron_plr.x = i ) {

     

     for(  j = 0;  j < 2;  j = j + .01 ){

     

      if( ron_plr.y - ron_dot.y = j ) {

    

       player.chat = "Hit";      



       }

      }

     }

    }

then I also tried which semi works but not always.

PHP Code:


		
			
 //Using a bunch of cords and just checking if it matches?

  this.xcords = { ron_dot.x,ron_dot.x + .25, ron_dot.x + .5,ron_dot.x + .75,ron_dot.x+1, ron_dot.x+ 1.5, ron_dot.x+2,ron_dot.x - .25,ron_dot.x - .5,ron_dot.x - .75,ron_dot.x - 1, ron_dot.x - 1.5, ron_dot.x - 2 };

  this.ycords = { ron_dot.y,ron_dot.y - .25, ron_dot.y + .5,ron_dot.y - .75,ron_dot.y+1, ron_dot.y+ 1.5, ron_dot.y+2,ron_dot.y - .25,ron_dot.y - .5,ron_dot.x - .75,ron_dot.y - 1, ron_dot.y - 1.5, ron_dot.y - 2 };

  if ( ron_plr.x in this.xcords ) {

   if ( ron_plr.y in this.ycords ) {

    player.chat = "Hit";

   }

  }

thanks in advance!.

You may not be using in, the way you meant to.

A good example of this..

PHP Code:


		
			
//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
  setTimer(0.05);
}

function onTimeout() {
  if (player.x in |20,40| && player.y in |20,40|) {
    player.chat = "You are in the zone!";
  }
  setTimer(0.05);
}

Alright wow I was almost using that completely wrong, thanks for the heads up again!

For your purpose yes. That's why I typically use it the way you originally did it for scenarios like this:

PHP Code:


		
			
temp.value = "apples";

temp.array = {"oranges", "apples", "bananas"};

if (temp.value in temp.array) echo("apples!");

Anyway glad I could be of help.
