noddybox.VectorGfx

+This module provides methods for displaying 2D vector graphics, and finding +collisions between objects. +This is implemented in two different ways depending on how you want collisions +work work. +

+ +

+A collision map can be used, whereby objects can be drawn into the map when +being drawn onto the screen. A mask of these collisions, as well as the +actual objects and lines involved with the collisions is returned. This +method uses a +TVectorGfxCollisionMap to store collision data, and is invoked using the +DrawToCollisionMap +method in +TVectorGfxObject. +
+The other method is more manual in that a point of lists is returned (defined +using +TVectorGfxPoint +objects) defining all the points drawn for an object. +This is invoked using the +DrawToPointList +method in +TVectorGfxObject. +

+ +It should be noted that the collision map method is not fool-proof. For +example, two diagnal lines may pass through each other without colliding. + + + -- cgit v1.2.3
