How does move_and_slide() use move_and_collide() under the hood?

Hi,

I'm trying to make my 2DKinematic Character as controllable as possible.

In order to do this, I want to use moveandcollide(), and write my own logic for handling collisions.

I'm running into quite a few issues, as everything doesn't just work with a magic wand via this method. It would be very helpful to see how moveandslide() uses moveandcollide().

Can anybody help me with this? Are there any C#/C++ docs?

The "C++ docs" are the source code. You can see how move_and_slide() is implemented by looking at the source:
