A mask of these collisions, as well as the +actual objects and lines involved with the collisions is returned. This +method uses a <a href="commands.html#TVectorGfxCollisionMap" class="token"> +TVectorGfxCollisionMap</a> to store collision data, and is invoked using the +<a href=commands.html#DrawToCollisionMap class=token>DrawToCollisionMap</a> +method in +<a href="commands.html#TVectorGfxObject" class="token">TVectorGfxObject</a>. +</li> + +<li> +The other method is more manual in that a point of lists is returned (defined +using +<a href="commands.html#TVectorGfxPoint" class="token">TVectorGfxPoint</a> +objects) defining all the points drawn for an object. +This is invoked using the +<a href=commands.html#DrawToPointList class=token>DrawToPointList</a> +method in +<a href="commands.html#TVectorGfxObject" class="token">TVectorGfxObject</a>. +</li> + +</ul> + +It should be noted that the collision map method is not fool-proof.
