Circle to Circle Collision Detection and Velocity

-----------------------------------

If anyone knows alot about Circle to Circle Collision detection and the vectors and velocity that a ball would have after such a collision, i would give all my bits and claim you to be the god of programming  if you posted a good tutorial about the basics. I am not asking for competed code just some basics to work off of. Thanks!

I asked this question a lil while ago and Homer_Simpson helped me, wonder if I can help you before he finds this thread and tells you clear :p

I'll try

there's that old tutorial on pool game (circle collisions)... code itself doesnt work well, but I think it is described well enough to write your own.

Thanx I didn't see the pool tutorial. Homers code was to confussing to understand for me, I need it in a more of a tutorail form, i ask the question I have already looked at it already and it didn't help me, becuase I could follow the logic of his code. Though i was an awsome program.

the tutorial is found [url=http://www.compsci.ca/v2/viewtopic.php?p=403]here

though it's more of a trig consept to use to calculate rebound vectors after oval collision.
