Problem with inheritance

Hi this is my first post here. Im doing a game, i got the superclass object Living_Body, that should manage collissions, health, etc. Then i got the object Enemy_Swordman that manage the other stuff. This is a sub-class that inherites from living_body

The problem is that i can't get working the method overlaps() from the living_body parent, but if i put the overlaps in the Enemy class then it works, also i can get the health variable from the parent, so the inheritance it is working.

So i read a lot about inheritance, but it seems to bee all ok, but maybe you can help me with this.

When i run the game, the enemys in the map are moving but they dont collission each other, like if the overlaps method dosn't exist.

this is the overlaps method:

void overlaps(Enemy_Swordman other){
  float d = dist(posx, posy, other.posx, other.posy);
  if (d < diameter / 4 + diameter / 4)
  {
    if (posx > other.posx) {
      posx += 3; other.posx -= 3;
    } else {
      posy -= 3; other.posy += 3;
    }
    if (posy > other.posy) {
      posy += 3; other.posy -= 3;
    } else {
      posy -= 3; other.posy += 3;
    }     
  }
}

Thanks !

    You're better off not mixing collision check & movement code in the same method. :-\"

    do you mean posy in line 8?

    But that wouldn't fix anything, is the same problem, the inherited method is not checking the collission

    That's the only code you posted. Can't fix code we can't see.
