To prevent overlap in p5.js, you can use collision detection techniques such as:

  1. Using the dist() function: Calculate the distance between two objects and if the distance is less than the sum of their radii, they are overlapping.
  2. Implementing bounding boxes: Create rectangular boxes around your objects and check if these boxes intersect. If they do, then the objects are overlapping.
  3. Separating objects: When two objects overlap, move them apart along their collision normal until they are no longer overlapping.
  4. Checking for collisions in your draw loop: Continuously check for collisions between objects in your draw loop and take appropriate action to prevent overlap.


By implementing these techniques, you can prevent overlap between objects in your p5.js sketches.
