Collision detection

I need super easy collision detection i hate walking through buildings. I need this because for my new game i dont want to walk through stuff, at first i was thinking it was not solid and its not so i could really use collision detection

REALLY SIMPLE!!

well u could always set an if/then statement. if variable (of whatever) is within so and so meters of variable (building) then variable (people)... something. experiment. u cud do a wait method for _ seconds. umm. move away from building _ meters. something. but thats the basic idea.

Or you could use the simplest one: The preset collision detection engine comes with the "let the arrow keys move the camera" method.

when you let the arrow keys move the camera though it messes the game up?

let arrow keys move is the only thing i use with 2.2 but it never works!

If you're using a Mac then collision detection never works on any version. In my Mirror's edge game the "fall" method made things solid. It was "If camera is within 5 meters of building cluster 4 do camera move backwards 5 meters" sounds weird but it works!
Edit: this makes all the objects solid not just the one
