Tower Defense Hitbox

[stoic eagle]

I have 2 types of hitboxes, radial and rectangular. I am unable to figure out how to calculate rectangular hitboxes using the following variables: 1. Tower Position(middle of a rectangles edge) 2. Rectangle Dimensions 3. Enemy Position

SPATIAL QUERIES :D

[stoic eagle]

no

The character doesnt exist

its all data

Tower = {
Property1 = 2,
Position = vector2.new(x, y)
}
Enemy= {
Property1 = 2,
Position = vector2.new(x, y)
}

hm

so lets rename the variables u know a bit better

u know the difference of positions (vector)

and u know the size of the rectangle

correct?

[stoic eagle]

i can get any data i need from the client

but not the enemies position

i send the hitboxdata to the server

then it's created there

and it checks for enemies

[ivory kelp]

i dont really get what u mean

tell me exactly what you know/can get

and the type

and tell me exactly what u want

collision detection?

You mean something like?

[stoic eagle]

no

there are no parts

in the workspace

[lethal frost]

just replace the Part with the date you have

function isPointInPart(point, cf, size)
    local p = cf:PointToObjectSpace(point)
    local s = size/2
    return p.X >= -s.X and p.X <= s.x and p.Y >= -s.Y ... etc
end

ill test it out

thanks
