Hi guys I just recently purchased ImpactJS and here is my first question:

Seeing this:

How can i do this?

Thanks!

I assume that you want to create a smaller collision area ? if so change this.size.x and this.size.y to your required size and then use the offset to align the sprite image.

Should have also said if its based on one of the sample player entities its set like this size:{x:16, y:32}.

Ok done! So the size property is for collision area, not for sprite area :P

Many thanks!

Correct, you define the sprite size when setting up the animation sheets:
new ig.AnimationSheet('playerwalk.png', 64, 96),
