`SPRHIT n, kind [,x1, y1, x2, y2]` gives a sprite a collision shape: a box, a circle inscribed in it, or a capsule. `RSPHIT(n, f)` reads it back in SPRHIT's own argument order, the way RSPRITE and RSPPOS already do, and needs no device because it answers from interpreter state. The rectangle is two corners measured from the sprite's top-left, in device pixels -- the same `x1, y1, x2, y2` that `BOX` and `SSHAPE` take. A dialect with two spellings for a rectangle is one nobody can write from memory. Omit it and the shape fits whatever the picture turned out to be, which is what a sprite loaded from a file needs: `SPRSAV "ship.png", 1` takes the image's own size and the program never learns what that was. **A sprite nobody has shaped collides with its whole frame, expansion bits included, exactly as before.** That is a promise rather than a convenience, and it has its own test: the same two sprites in the same two places, once with no SPRHIT and once with a four-pixel box, reporting a collision and then not. Named SPRHIT rather than SPRSHAPE because "shape" already means "a region SSHAPE saved" in this dialect, in this very chapter -- `SPRSAV A$, 1` takes one -- and a reader who typed `SPRSHAPE A$, 1` would have had every reason to. Both names, and RSPHIT, were grepped against every label in docs/, examples/ and both corpora first: a bare word is a label here, so a verb and a label share one namespace and taking a name a checked-in listing already uses would break it silently. `SPRHIT n, 0` takes a sprite out of collision while leaving it on the screen -- the ghost, the flashing invulnerable player, the pickup already taken. Hiding it with `SPRITE n, 0` stops it colliding too, and is what you want when it should not be seen either. The circle answers the complaint chapter 8 already ships a figure of. That figure shows two discs whose *boxes* touch at a corner while the artwork is nowhere near, and `BUMP(1)` reporting a collision; two `SPRHIT n, 2` and it stops. The test asserts both halves so the figure's caption stays true. `tests/verbs_table.c` caught RSPHIT filed after RSPPOS rather than before it, which is the sorted-table test doing exactly the job it exists for. Docs: a new section in chapter 8, rows in the verb and function references in alphabetical order, and chapter 13's "collision is by bounding box" becomes "collision is by shape" with the addition named. 111 with akgl, 110 without, and the artwork breakout still runs clean.
