Four-way Gravitational Engine Issues (Atari 2600)
In the last couple months I've been working on a project using "Fake Gravity Platformer Test with Shooting" (from here: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/179473-fake-gravity-platformer-test/)
as a template.
The goal of my project is to create a Platformer with four-way gravity.
This is how the Code is supposed to work: First, it is decided which Code should be executed depending
on the current gravity, then every direction of Collision is represented by a Subroutine.
Each of those Subroutines follow the same scheme:
The Code tests if one pixel collides with the block and then tests for another one in the
same row/column (depending on which direction and which gravity)
This is supposed to create a glichless "Hitbox" for the player character.
This sadly doesn't work for a reason unknown to me
(The player can jump through walls or glitch his "head" halfway into a block supposed to be solid)
I've tried many methods to fix this issue:
Make the Player Coords normal values instead of float, hoping it would help, but it didn't
Tried different PlayerCoords-to-Block-Value conversions like
division, modulo and bitwiseChange Order of Subroutines
I'm clueless and I've completely run out of ideas.
Does anyone know what the Problem could be?
I attached the current state of my project:
https://pastebin.com/NbD4Huvia
(P. S. Visual Batari Basic v1.0 Build 568 used to work, I don't know if anyone uses this language
anymore or I'm the only one, I already posted this on the Atari 2600's Programming Forum for Newbies,
but haven't recieved an answer in two weeks.)

Posting a link to your whole project is generally frowned upon. If you need debugging help, post the relevant code in the question. If it is too big, narrow it down. If you can't narrow it down, the question might not be suitable for this site. Also try Retrocomputing.

Your code should be in the question, not linked-to off-site.

This is not a question about 6502 so I've deleted the tag. I would also have deletedassembly but that would leave it with no tags at all, and I'm not sure what tags to add. Maybe something to do with Basic?
