I need some help with some collision detection, in
a all directional scroller type game..  
I have stored the map in an array variable of a structure
like this
struct
{
  int min_x, max_x;
  int min_y, max_y;
}COLLIDE[30][40];

struct
{
  int car_min_x, car_max_x;
  int car_min_y, car_max_y;
}CARBOX;

and am using the car_x, car_y variables to track the
cars position.. I want to be able to tell when the car
hits a tile of type 1, which means its solid, so I don't
let the car move that time..

Pleeze help me..!
I have 8 directions the car can move..
like this
