shapes?

[Shadowblitz16]

I was thinking what if Love2D implemented shape helpers and collision methods for them..

the shapes I where thinking of is..

• Rect(int x1,int y1int ,x2,int y1)
• Circ(int x1,int y1,int x2,int y2)
• Line(int x1,int y2,int x2,int y2)
• Poly(param int points)

all which inherit a abstract Shape class which contains

they could contains the following properties which effect each other

• points a protected list of points or vector2s
• x1 the minimum point x coordnet in points
• y1 the minimum point y coordnet in points
• x2 the maximum point x coordnet in points
• y2 the maximum point y coordnet in points
• x alieas for x1
• y alieas for y1
• w the maxiumum width of the shape
• h the maximum height of the shape
• rx the x radius or width from center to one side
• ry the y radius or height from center to one side
• cx the center x
• cy the center y
• line thickness or -1 for fill
• line stipple
• line join style
• color
• collision between shapes.

these properties would all be settable and gettable and would effect eachother.

these would be drawable with love.Graphic.Draw or Love.Graphics.<ShapeName>

they could be really useful for game dev and they wouldn't need to be part of the official love2dcs library if you don't want them to be

I think you mean need a function about drawing physical debugging. World:DebugDraw can show the conllision info : This may help you

@endlesstravel no I mean shapes for drawing and actual ingame collision detection

something like https://github.com/adnzzzzZ/windfield ? I agree with you, but i don't think I have the energy to write a C# version now.

ok this can be kept open until you have time.
