Not specifically.
It's a classic problem. The man gets into a position that satisfies the
'stop moving' handler and stops. That's good. But, when you try to move
the man, he's still triggering the 'stop moving' handler. You either
need to back the man out of the 'stop zone' after stopping him or check
_before_ moving him whether he will collide and stop him before he does.
try this:
Move a 'footprint' bitmap _behind_ the background layer, check for a
collision, if there isn't one, move the man onto the footprint, if there
is a collision, move the footprint back under the man.
