Hi, I’m making a game similar to FNF. The title may seem simple, but 1 of the UI elements are inside a ScrollingFrame which’s CanvasPosition is also being tweened.
I have this script here, but it used to detect an overlap too early and now detects it when the note’s middle is near the key (called roll) instead.
local keybinds = game.ReplicatedStorage.Keybinds
function areFramesOverlapping(Frame1,Frame2)
-- X axis overlap detection
local F1posX,F2posX = Frame1.AbsolutePosition.X,Frame2.AbsolutePosition.X
local F1sizeX,F2sizeX = Frame1.AbsoluteSize.X,Frame2.AbsoluteSize.X
local Xdistance = math.abs(F1posX-F2posX) -- distance (in px) between frames
local minXdistance = math.abs(F1sizeX-F2sizeX/10)-- min distance w/o overlap
if Xdistance < minXdistance then return true end -- OVERLAP!!
return false -- no overlap detected
end
game.UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if script.Parent.Parent.Charter.Enabled == true then return end
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode[keybinds.Key1.Value] then
for _, v in pairs(script.Parent.Notes:WaitForChild("OncomingNotes"):GetChildren()) do
if areFramesOverlapping(script.Parent.Notes.Keys.Roll1, v) == true then
v:Destroy()
end
end
end
end)
Preferably, I’d like it to check multiple different areas to reward the proper score, like FNF, but even detecting 1 overlap is fine.
You could use some method to get the bounds of each of the UI objects (I don’t know how off the top of my head), and then use StarterGui:GetGuiObjectsAtPosition() to see if they are overlapping. It’s just a basic idea, it could be adapted to be much better.
i might be doing it wrong but this always returns *doodoo*
function areFramesOverlapping(Frame1,Frame2)
-- X axis overlap detection
local F1posX,F2posX = Frame1.AbsolutePosition.X,Frame2.AbsolutePosition.X
local F1sizeX,F2sizeX = Frame1.AbsoluteSize.X,Frame2.AbsoluteSize.X
local Xdistance = math.abs(F1posX-F2posX)
if Xdistance >= 20 then return "*doodoo*" end
if Xdistance >= 30 then return "Bad" end
if Xdistance >= 50 then return "Good" end
if Xdistance >= 100 then return "Perfect" end
return "Miss" -- no overlap detected
end
this doesnt work either but again i might be doing it wrong, since i’ve never used GetGuiObjectsAtPosition()
function areFramesOverlapping(Frame1)
return game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui:GetGuiObjectsAtPosition(Frame1.Position.X.Scale+Frame1.Size.X.Scale/2, Frame1.Position.Y.Scale)
end
game.UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.C then
for _, v in pairs(areFramesOverlapping(script.Parent.Notes.Keys.Roll1)) do
if v:IsA("Frame") and v.Name == "Note" then
local rollStroke = script.RollStroke:Clone()
game:GetService("TweenService"):Create(rollStroke, TweenInfo.new(v.Size.X.Scale * 3), {Transparency = 1}):Play()
rollStroke.Parent = script.Parent.Notes.Keys.Roll1
wait(v.Size.X.Scale * 3)
rollStroke:Destroy()
v:Destroy()
end
end
end
end)
I think you need to use AbsolutePosition, as GetGuiObjectsAtPosition takes a Vector2 (I’m pretty sure, it doesn’t explicitely state that). You’ll still need to calculate the position of each edge. You might want to account for the GuiInset as well because GetGuiObjectsAtPosition accounts for that, you can get it through GuiService:GetGuiInset().
Translated to Roblox you could do something like this:
local function checkObjectsOverlap(a: GuiObject, b: GuiObject)
local aAbsPos = a.AbsolutePosition
local aAbsSize = a.AbsoluteSize
local bAbsPos = b.AbsolutePosition
local bAbsSize = b.AbsoluteSize
local aLeft = aAbsPos.X
local bLeft = bAbsPos.X
local aRight = aLeft + aAbsSize.X
local bRight = bLeft + bAbsSize.X
local aTop = aAbsPos.Y
local bTop = bAbsPos.Y
local aBottom = aTop + aAbsSize.Y
local bBottom = bTop + bAbsSize.Y
return aLeft < bRight and aRight > bLeft and bTop < aBottom and bBottom > aTop
end
