Using Graphics.drawPolygon()

[TMichel]

Hi,

 

I just started testing Phaser and i am trying to render a simple polygon on screen:

var g = new Phaser.Graphics(game);var p = new Phaser.Polygon(10,10,70,70,70,10,10,10);g.drawPolygon( p );

Using v2.0.6. Am i missing something?

I believe you have to fill it with a color.

This should be something like p.fill(#FF55FF);

 

But I'm not sure.

 

Edit: For future reader: I was totally wrong.

Thank you. Polygon does not have fill() method but as stated in the Graphics doc, drawPolygon() "Draws a {Phaser.Polygon} or a {PIXI.Polygon} filled". Graphics object does not seem to provide that neither.

 
Anyway my intention is not even fill it or show it, i will use it only for debuging purposes, as i want to use its points to replicate the behaviour on the chained tweens example.
 
I usually do this in Turbulenz by enabling the 2DDebug viewport. Apparently in Phaser i must use game.debug.geom() for that purpose but i see that only accepts basic shapes and lines as a parameter, am i right?

Phaser.Polygon is an abstract object meant to represent collision areas and so on - it's not a graphics object as such. To draw polygons on a Graphics object you should see this example, as Phaser.Graphics is an extension of pixi's Graphics object: http://www.goodboydigital.com/pixijs/examples/13/
