  Collision detection - no auto-generated, you build your own manually. The LDtk integration has lots of examples here. Note that for 2D, if you only want rectangles bordering sprites, you can set the collider bounds equal to your sprite bounds, which gets you 99% of the way there

  I've really enjoyed using ldtk for this kind of thing using this plugin https://github.com/Trouv/bevy_ecs_ldtk. The bevy setup for entities and collisions is a little verbose but there are solid examples in the repo that I was able to get working in my project very quickly by building from that code. It's pretty activity maintained and they've been responsive to bugs I file too.

• Adding colliders to entities generated by bevy_ecs_ldtk
  1 project | /r/bevy | 2 Jul 2022

  However, I'm struggling with adding collider boxes to entities. In ecs_ldtk example (https://github.com/Trouv/bevy_ecs_ldtk/tree/main/examples/platformer) they spawn colliders automatically attached to entities. However, I would prefer to have them be slightly shifted (let's say, only 1-tile-sized collider attached to the player's legs or no collider on a tree crown), which means I need to spawn a child anchor to the entity and attach a collider to it. I guess one possible solution would be to have a system that does this for me on entity spawn, but maybe there's another solution I'm unaware of, and more experienced developers could help me here. Thanks in advance! :)
