PureBasic 5.20 beta 20 is out

[TI-994A]

It is not necessary at all to struggle with those type constants for sorting. We don't have to give this information to PB, because PB knows it itself.

Even better then, would be if PureBasic implements the Type parameter as an option, and defaults to the internally detected variable type for such functions.

"DisplayTransparentSprite" no longer works inside a [Start/Stop]Drawing block. My code works perfect without [Start/Stop]Drawing, and so I am happy to take it out.

Has something happened to the underlying API? Is it because of DirectX 11 that we no longer need [Start/Stop]Drawing?

Nice work PB team. Very happy with PB 5.20.

Added: WorldCollisionContact(), WorldCollisionNormal(), WorldCollisionAppliedImpulse()

Thank you very much Fred! These are commands I was hoping for.
Please if possible can we have a small example of how to use these collision commands.

My specific questions are...
ExamineWorldCollisions(Mode) - What are the modes to choose from? - What to expect from return(so far I only get zero)?
WorldCollisionContact() - (returns a vector) using explicit declarations, how would I receive a vector? - is there a built in vector type I am unaware of?

So if someone who understands can please help with some explanations, or if Fred can please give an example of usage, I would be very grateful
My project needed these commands, and I am very excited to start using them, but so far, no luck, and I think this is only because I don't quite understand correctly.

Thank you in advance,
David
