I have multiple sprites placed onto a background sprite like this:
//my background
CCSprite *bg = [CCSprite spriteWithFile:@"imageName.png"];
[self addchild:bg];
And then I add my items onto bg
//this is how i add my items
CCSprite *items = [CCSprite spriteWithFile:@"itemName.png"];
[bg addchild:items];
Oh and not forgetting my car sprite
//my car
CCSprite *car = [CCSprite spriteWithFile:@"car.png"];
[self addchild:car];
I use a loop to add multiple sprites onto the bg.
Now the question is how do I detect whether the car collided with the multiple sprites that I have placed onto the bg?
I've tried using CGRectIntersectsRect and it doesn't work.
I've tried using the pythagoras theorem method and once again it doesn't work.
There was a method which involved adding the items sprites into a NSMutableArray and it doesn't work either.
Can anyone suggest a method whereby I can try?
Additional code:
-(void) initializeCarAndItems
{
car = [CCSprite spriteWithFile:@"android.png"];

[self addChild:car z:1];
carRect = [car boundingBox];
}

bg2.anchorPoint = ccp(0,0);
bg2.position = ccp(0, bg1.boundingBox.size.height - 1);
[self addChild:bg2 z:-1];

}
-(void) update:(ccTime)deltaTime

[self accelerate];
for (CCSprite *itemFromArray in itemsArray)

if (CGRectIntersectsRect(carRect, itemRect))

}
}
if (leftButton.active == TRUE)
{

}
else if (rightButton.active == TRUE)

UPDATE:
It's fixed :)
