But what about more complex shapes, more rects to approximate the shape?\

In that case, you would have several rects to an object. It would work well to have a container of reacts in that case and test collision for each one.

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...

Wouldn't that be a very cumbersome way of checking collision?

I think it is the best way to approach it. As I've learned, rectangles are easy to compute and more complex shapes take up more computing time (especially round shapes).

Actually, never underestimate the rate at which collisions can be tested. Take this for example, a game I made last year in C++. (Sorry for my fail commentary) :P



Each bullet tests for collision with each zombie. It even does it in a more dubious way where each bullet will have several rects for where it's predicted to go the next frame (so as to avoid bullets "phasing" through enemies) and it still runs very smoothly, even with hundreds of bullets and zombies at once.

Looks pretty nice. I guess the effects won't be noticable untill you go insane and draw billions of them on screen at once :P

I think it started lagging at about the tens of thousands, and that was because each zombie was drawn even while off screen :P
