Object gets stuck in wall

[Winston]

I don't know how to make working walls. I have backdrops placed, set as obstacles, and I can make it so that when an object collides with it, it can no longer move. But the object gets stuck in the wall instead of resting beside or on top of it. How do I stop the object's movement so that it stops when it is just outside of the wall?

The attached image represents an object moving down at 8 pixels per frame.

Proper solution

Use a fastloop to move the object out of the wall if it is overlapping.

Although I can't get this to work correctly myself:

+blue overlapping black
-> start loop "esc" 20 times (eg 20=worst case overshoot)

+on loop "esc"
+blue overlapping black
-> Y(blue)-1

+on loop "esc"
+blue not overlapping black
-> stop loop "esc" (stop before esc goes 20 times)

Something like that.

Quick fix1

If its a floor thats completely flat across the whole frame with no bumps.

+Y(blue) > 175(y of floor)
->set Y(blue) = 175

Quick fix2

You might try this.

+blue overlaps black
->set Y(blue) to Y(black) + 10 (or whatever you desire)

thanks! that worked
