How does obj_set_solid_sloped() work?

[Squidward578]

i cant really seem to make any sense of this, how do i make a 1x3 sloped object?

First of all, what does 1x3 object even mean? One pixel in height and 3 pixels in length? Sonic probably won't be able to collide with such object in most cases

Next, let's take a look at obj_spring_d_yellow:

var _height_map = 
[
	16,16,16,16,16,16,16,16,16,16,16,16,16,14,14,12,12,10,10,8,8,6,6,4,4,2,2,0,0,-2,-2,-4
];
	
obj_set_solid_sloped(_height_map);

Heightmap is an array of numbers where each number represents the height of the object from it's centre at a specific horizontal point. The larger the value in the array, the higher the surface at that point

You can disable the spring’s reaction to the player and observe how it behaves

Assuming the answer is helpful enough since there is no response
