How to model walled areas (the maze)

[awilderspace]

In this lesson we made a maze area to traverse and restart based on the player leaving the bounds of the maze. Due to the engine this makes it so that it only resets once the entire hit box leaves. Changing the collision box type to segment and connecting to body_entered instead works. This is hard to search but I am wondering if that is the correct solution or if the maze design should be inverted to use walls instead (if I want it to be if the edge of the saucer touches the out of bounds).

Any opinions / best practices?

Hi and welcome to the community

I did have a play around a while back as i seen a question relating to having the player touch the walls.
I changed the map to use the body entered.

Here’s a link to the post I wrote, might give you a little more ideas on how I done it.

Race track creation?

How would I go about creating a racetrack? Making the first outerlayer of the track would complete the polygon shape, and to complete the inner one, would require another polygon shape (imagine a simple track of a big oval and a small oval inside). However completing the polygon shape would not allow me to use the “create points” tool again or else it would delete the current polygon shape. Would I just make two CollisionPolygon2D’s and duplicate the Polygon2D child into both?
