ColDet module (well, pseudo-module) if anyone wants to have a go at using it.

Should be fully functional, I make no guarantees though as I've not had time to test it completely yet.

Sounds cool, except, what IS IT? (some kind of collision detection I guess?)

As the name would imply, it's for (3D) collision detection. It's widely regarded (and I share this opinion) as one of the fastest collision detection libraries available. Many people have used it in place of even Blitz3D's own collision detection.

so, is it applicable to 2D?

Yeh, i used coldet in place of b3ds collision system, its
super fast...highly recommended - especially if your creating
your own 3D engine or using someone elses...probably
the best collision around that doesnt cost megabucks..

nice work noel :]

Not that I know of.
