How can I implement advanced collision detection in my C++ physics engine?

To implement advanced collision detection, you can use techniques like bounding volume hierarchies, spatial partitioning, or continuous collision detection. Which one are you interested in?

I'm interested in bounding volume hierarchies. How do I start with that?

Start by creating a tree structure where each node represents a bounding volume that encapsulates a set of objects. You can use AABBs or spheres for the volumes. Would you like a code example?

Yes, a code example would be great!

Here's a simple example of creating an AABB tree in C++... [insert code snippet]. Let me know if you need further explanation!

This is helpful! How do I handle collisions once I detect them?

Once a collision is detected, you can resolve it by calculating the collision response, which involves adjusting the positions and velocities of the colliding objects. Would you like to dive deeper into that?
