Having trouble getting 'onCollision' to fire.

Title says it, here's my code for my entities:

Basically I'm trying to determine when my 'Hero' collides with my 'Goal' object. They are both correctly defined in Tiled and are loading just fine, no errors in the console.

What am I missing here?

So I just found this: http://melonjs.github.io/docs/me.collision.html#check

That seems to fire just fine. Is this the preferred way to detect collision? What's the purpose of body.onCollision, if so? Thanks!

And now I've found if I call check(), all the body.onCollision handlers on any of my other entities seem to fire just fine!

I might go in and add a pull request for a simple boolean variable that automatically calls check() if true. This seems like a lot of work just to enable collisions for an entity.

This collision code is all new in 1.1.0. It needs to be reworked to do collision checking automatically (as you discovered). For performance reasons, we can't have each entity doing the collision checking; it just needs to be done once globally.
