Hy guys,
I am developing a game for android using libgdx. I am completely stuck at the part of detecting collision between two bodies. I have a player which I create through the function below
public Body createPlayer(String file_path, String fixture_name) {
// 0. Create a loader for the file saved from the editor.
BodyEditorLoader loader = new BodyEditorLoader(Gdx.files.internal(file_path));
// 1. Create a BodyDef, as usual.
BodyDef bd = new BodyDef();
bd.type = BodyDef.BodyType.DynamicBody;
// 2. Create a FixtureDef, as usual.
FixtureDef fd = new FixtureDef();
fd.density = 1;
fd.friction = 0.5f;
fd.restitution = 0.3f;
// 3. Create a Body, as usual.
body= world.createBody(bd);
//body.setBullet(true);
// 4. Create the body fixture automatically by using the loader.
loader.attachFixture(body, fixture_name, fd, 1);
body.setUserData(this);
return body;
}
and an enemy that I create with the same function of the player where I change only the file_path and the fixture_name. The file_path points to a .json file that I created with box2d editor (site: http://www.aurelienribon.com/blog/projects/physics-body-editor/). After the creation of the body I draw the player and the enemy with two similar functions ( I only post one):
private void drawPlayer(){
player_sprite = new Sprite(player_TR);
player_sprite.setSize(player.getWidth(), player.getHeight());
player_sprite.setPosition(player.getX(), player.getY());
player_sprite.setOrigin(0, 0);
player_sprite.draw(sb);
}
If I start the game everything is drawn where it should be. Obviously if the player touches the enemy nothing happen. So i started trying to search how to make the two bodies collides but I don't really understand how to use ContactListener and beginContact. beginContact wants as input a Contact but what is a Contact? I have found this code online which appears to solve my problem but I don't know how to use it:
worldbox.setContactListener(new ContactListener() {
@Override
public void beginContact(Contact contact) {
if(contact.getFixtureA().getBody().getUserData()== "body1" &&
contact.getFixtureB().getBody().getUserData()== "body2")
Colliding = true;
System.out.println("Contact detected");
}
Can you help me (if it is possible through some code) to solve my problem? Thanks in advance, Francesco

And if I start the program my view is my player in the middle and to margins ,one on the left and one on the right. (unfortunatly I cannot post images of my view because I don't have enough rep).
Everithing is fine. I move my player with the accelerometer and it works fine without any problem. The only problem is that if I move the player near the margin the two entities overlap instead of colliding and I don't understand why. I also fixed the line:
loader.attachFixture(body, fixture_name, fd, 1);
to loader.attachFixture(body, fixture_name, fd, player_width);
but nothing changes.
render()
method? I though that box2d by default have activated the collisions – Alex Sifuentes
