Hey everyone! I've implemented simple dynamic lightning in my project, but what I'm missing is soft light edges effect. This what it looks like now: https://youtu.be/M-idTMGYvsw I use sprites' masks to achieve that, code looks somewhat like this: updateShowingLayer() { + this.showMaskGraphics.clear(); + this.showMaskGraphics.lineStyle( 2, 0xffffff, 1 ); + this.showMaskGraphics.beginFill( 0x00000000 ); + this.showMaskGraphics.moveTo( this.player.x, this.player.y ); + + for ( let i = 0; i < NUMBER_OF_RAYS; i++ ) { + const rayAngle = mouseAngle - ( LIGHT_ANGLE / 2 ) + ( LIGHT_ANGLE / NUMBER_OF_RAYS ) * i; + let lastX = this.player.x; + let lastY = this.player.y; + for ( let j = 1; j <= RAY_LENGTH; j++ ) { + const landingX = Math.round( this.player.x - ( 2 * j ) * Math.cos( rayAngle ) ); + const landingY = Math.round( this.player.y - ( 2 * j ) * Math.sin( rayAngle ) ); + if ( !this.isTileBlocking( landingX, landingY ) ) { + lastX = landingX; + lastY = landingY; + } else { + break; + } + } + this.showMaskGraphics.lineTo( lastX, lastY ); + } + this.showMaskGraphics.lineTo( this.player.x, this.player.y ); + this.showMaskGraphics.endFill(); } } And then I just set masks in corresponding sprites to `this.showMaskGraphics` The full code is available here: https://github.com/PiGames/Project-Nostradamus/blob/dynamic-lightning/src/objects/Flashlight.js Does anyone have an idea how to make this light soft ? Thanks
