Legacy GM Need help with collision Scaling in arcade style game

[wiley]

I have an enemy_object with an enemy_sprite. I'm trying to get the collision boxes of the randomly spawned images to match their sprites. I'm not sure how to do this... I've been trying different things for about 2 weeks.

Different answers have made sense but the implementation of them has proved unsuccessful. Attached link is a project file showing my problem.

the collision box is staying the same size as the original sprite while the sprite is being redrawn at different sizes. I do not know how to set the collision scaling and THEN draw the sprite. any help is appreciated.

Hey wiley,
Try the sprite_collision_mask function: https://docs.yoyogames.com/source/d...ame assets/sprites/sprite_collision_mask.html
You can assign variables that conform to your needs in its arguments.

I haven't had any successfully experience using sprite_collision_mask. Do you have any idea where and how i would implement that?
