Differentiate geometries?

[icrls984]

Hello there,

Sorry for asking, but how do you make a script to differentiate a box, circle, and polygon? I've been trying to do this based on the geometries' properties, such as size, radius, but since it throws up undefined my ideas are constantly being thrown out the window. I'm sure there is a painfully simple way to do this, but I couldn't find anything in a search.

Thanks!

{""+object} gives you object name: "polygon", "circle", "box" etc.

kilinich - I tried {""+object} and it shows "undefined".

I think he meant e.other or e.this as object

object means it's some variable like e.this, e.other or result of scene.entityByGeomID()

You look a little bit like I did 20 years ago. I also have a beard.

So, the correct usage would be something along the lines of "e.this.object" or "e.other.object" or something similar?

I ask because I've been trying to find a way to do this for some time.

Also nice whiskers.

Examples:

for box:
onCollide = (e) => {text = "" + e.other}

for laser:
onLaserHit = (e) => {"" + e.geom == "circle" ? {e.geom.color = color}:{}}
