If you ask what are sensors and how to use them for 2d platformer physics I'm sure you can get an excelent answer. If you want to know how the math behind AABB search around a bit and if you find no such question (I seem to remeber a few though) alter your question to ask that. | |

Often people will use multiple smaller boxes to make a more accurate representation of a larger box. Sensors are used with physics simulators because they don't respond to contact and simply pass though things only change thier state of no collsion or collision. This can be used to alter the players positioning to push them out of walls for very basic collsion handling instead of a simulated responce. | |
