So where is the actual collision

When I use CollideImage and I get an Array of Objects back.. I can determine where the two objects are when the collision happens but what if I want to know the actual collision point. Is there a way to tell?

Thanks for any help,
Eric

No
Thats only possible through polygon collision.

Not strictly true, if you have copies of the images stored in pixmaps you can figure how much they overlap and then check the pixels within the overlap to see if they touch each other.

Having said that, note that images could collide in more than one place at a time if you're checking each individual pixel.
