I want to detect collision between two 2D squares, one square is static and the other one moves according to keyboard arrows. I have implemented some code, however nothing happens when they overlap each other and what I tried to achieve in the code was to detect an overlapping between them. I think I am either not understanding the concept really well or that because one of the squares is moving this is not working. Please I would really appreciate your help. Thank you!

struct box{
int width=0.1;
int heigth=0.1;
};
void init(){
glClearColor(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0);

glTranslatef(posX1, posY1, 0.0);
glBegin(GL_POLYGON);
glColor3f(0.5, 1.0, 0.5);
glVertex2f(-x1, -Y1);
glVertex2f(-x1, Y1);
glVertex2f(x1,Y1);
glVertex2f(x1,-Y1);
glEnd();
