Pygame 碰撞检测`colliderect()`

Question

While going through the docs of pygame , there was a method of pygame called colliderect() that is used to test if two rect objects have overlapped.

colliderect() test if two rectangles overlap

colliderect(Rect) -> bool

Returns true if any portion of either rectangle overlap (except the top+bottom or left+right edges).

In the last line, it said except the top+bottom or left+right

What does this statement mean?

Answer 1

It means that the rectangles r1 and r2 :

r1 = pygame.Rect(0, 0, 10, 10)
r2 = pygame.Rect(10, 0, 10, 10)

are not colliding. r1.colliderect(r2) returns False , even though r1.left + r1.width is equal r2.right .

That is because the r1 covers the (x) region from 0 to 9 (inclusive) and r2 covers the (x) region from 10 to 19 (inclusive).
