I have a box object, which I created with Box2d. I set its angular velocity and angle to 0, so that it doesn’t rotate for now.

I’m checking every frame to see if the box is hitting the top screen and if it is, I clamp it and make it bounce in the opposite direction.

(also I know I should probably use the dot product here, but this is just a simple example with a linear velocity set to 0 in the x, and 7 in the y, so that the box only goes up or down).

Anyways, I do it like so:

void Game::ClampScreenY( Box* pBox)
{
    bool isColliding = false;
    auto pos = static_cast<b2Vec2>( pBox->GetPosition() );
    auto aabb = pBox->GetAABB();
    
    if( pos.y + boxSize >= boundarySize )
    {
        pos.y = boundarySize - boxSize;
        isColliding = true;
    }
    else if( pos.y - boxSize <= -boundarySize )
    {
        pos.y = -boundarySize + boxSize;
        isColliding = true;
    }

    if( isColliding )
    {
        auto vel = static_cast< b2Vec2 >( pBox->GetVelocity() );
        vel.y *= -1;
        pBox->SetVelocity( vel );
        pBox->SetPosition( pos );
    } 

Now this works if the box angle is 0 like in the following image:

This is fine, it works as expected.

But if I change the angle of the box to be different than 0 like so:

My program crashes. How can I fix this, and why exactly is this happening? I thought abound using the Axis Aligned Bounding Box and somehow work this through, I’m just not sure how to use the AABB to help me fix this issue.
