I know tons of threads exist, but I looked through a few of them, and they didn't really help me to learn how to start a collision detection code. Thanks

    ok, my game thus far is set in 3d.

    I believe that bounding sphere would be the best collision detection for me, but i havent used it yet. In everything I have made so far, I just walk thru walls. The reason I didnt find anything that helped me is that the threads I looked at had info for people who knew the basics of adding collision detection. I dont. I will check google just in case tho.

    This is a great tutorial on collision detection in XNA:

    This link might help you to understand bounding sphere:

    btw, since a wall is flat, you probably want to test the sphere (around your ship/obj), intersecting a plane (the wall). Walking through wall probably means the bounding sphere isn't defined/calculated correctly.
