How do you add hit boxes.

HOWWWWWWWWWWWWW

coIIide

Can you elaborate? If you mean for a platformer, just switch to a costume before doing all the code to move, then switch back.

when gf clicked
forever
switch costume to (hitbox v)
movement :: custom
switch costume to (player v)
end

hello

this is my signature, it pops up under every post i make :)

Make sure to use a run without screen refresh custom block to prevent flickering between the costume and hitbox.

Like dungeons and challenges? Take a look at The Techno Dungeon! beat as many floors as you can before you run out of health!
Look at me, DO NOT NECROPOST ON THESE:

Only link a tutorial on hws if it exactly matches their problem. This is a good example of one to suggest a tutorial to:

when green flag clicked
forever
if <touching [thing you wanna collide with v] ?> then 
go to x: (x) y: (y)
  

else
set [x v] to (x position)
set [y v] to (y position)
end
end

can somebody give me something to put in my signature

The most easy way for a beginner is probably to make a hitbox sprite, draw the hitbox, and put this code:

when gf clicked
hide
forever
go to [player v]
end

Ok

Jupitorspaceman

I just do

when green flag clicked
forever
repeat until <touching ground>
change y by (-10)
end
end

PotatoManthetrue

Just do this

when green flag clicked
forever
switch costume to [ Hitbox]
move (doesn't have to be the move, im just using this to show movemnet) steps
if <touching [ level ] then
move (-whatever) steps
end
switch costume to [ Player]
end

There is probably an easier way, but this is what I could get off the top of my head. I also suggest converting this to a custom block instead when a “when green flag clicked.”

just insert the script at the bottom of any script and it functions at a collision (hitbox) script
