Hi!

How do I detect if two entities collide?

Use register_touch() with the entities classname.

If you want simple function, you can use this

PHP Code:

stock IsColliding( iEntity1, iEntity2 ) {
    new Float:AbsMin1[ 3 ], Float:AbsMin2[ 3 ], Float:AbsMax1[ 3 ], Float:AbsMax2[ 3 ];
    
    pev( iEntity1, pev_absmin, AbsMin1 );
    pev( iEntity1, pev_absmax, AbsMax1 );
    pev( iEntity2, pev_absmin, AbsMin2 );
    pev( iEntity2, pev_absmax, AbsMax2 );
    
    if( AbsMin1[ 0 ] > AbsMax2[ 0 ] ||
        AbsMin1[ 1 ] > AbsMax2[ 1 ] ||
        AbsMin1[ 2 ] > AbsMax2[ 2 ] ||
        AbsMax1[ 0 ] < AbsMin2[ 0 ] ||
        AbsMax1[ 1 ] < AbsMin2[ 1 ] ||
        AbsMax1[ 2 ] < AbsMin2[ 2 ] )
        return 0;
    
    return 1;
}

But this function you would need to call very often, better to use register_touch and let the engine doing its job.

what if I have two entities with the same classname? Should I change them or is it some other way to find out if the player touches Entity1 or Entity2?

Rightnow, both of them have their classname set to "medicpack" but Entity1 is supposed to heal more then Entity2 so guess I should rename them "medicpack_large","medicpack_small" etc?

either that use a var or w/e to check the amount of healing.
