Turn off static -> sprite collisions

[Droid_999]

Howdy

I have implemented Chipmunk into my top down scroller, and collision detection between the player and static line segments is working very well. But, as part of debugging, sometimes I need to disable the collision on the fly - is there a 'switch' that allows disabling and re-enabling collisions between shapes and static line segments?

Thanks

The easiest thing to do would be to the categories/mask feature (Chipmunk 7) or the layers feature (Chipmunk 6). If you zero all of the bits out on your player, then it won't collide with anything. Then you just need to restore the values when you are done.
