How to make a wall using code?

Help
#1

i have a few coding experience and im new to the wick editor forums and i wanted to create a game but there’s one problem i don’t know how to code walls… like objects can pass through them it’ll be great if you give me an example of one thank you for reading!

Here’re the examples:

  1. With hit test (Hard coded options is broken in 1.17 and up)
  2. Without hit test (a more advance version) (no pass through)

welcome to the wick forms!
here are the instructions:

  1. make a wall and a character
  2. name your wall
  3. open the update script in the character
  4. add this code (you may change it if your wall is in a different axis)
    if(this.hitTest(wall1) ) {
    this.x -=10; // stop moving right
    }

thanks a lot this works too but only great for a top down game which im planning too make
but what about 2d games like endless running or like a flat 2d screen mario like game
because the walls only push which make the character bounce up and i learned a gravity code soo is there any other code i can use to make that game?

oh yeah, sorry that i didn’t tell you this but you can change the bottom code to work for any direction.
