finding how many objects are in collision

Hi,

Is there a way to retrieve the number of objects that are currently in collision with another?

For example, I have an object, and I want to know at a given time how many other objects are colliding only with him…

Is that possible?

Yes you can do that no problem.

Set a counter to zero initially

counter = 0

On the began phase of the collision set your counter to:

counter = counter+1

On the ended phase of the collision set your counter to:

counter = counter -1

This will keep count of how many items are colliding with him.
