Legacy GM Question regarding collision checking..

[Ayziak]

I have two objects with precise masks. I need to find any way to detect when they are no longer colliding.

This would preferably be a single-trigger event, like, say, a key release event, however if it did need to be something that was checked every step, I could work with it.

Thanks for taking the time to read this!

if !place_meeting(x, y, object) {
}

Using "!" or "not" makes you able to do that.
For key-released event you can check if not colliding when you release a key.

Thanks! (BTW, the key released thing was just an example for a single trigger )
