Hello guys! I'm not sure, i have find a project at past, maybe R0J0hound was this example, anyway. Is there any example to slice a physic object to pieces and calculate the pieces?

Thanks R0J0hound !

Is there any way to calculate the pieces (as my example in the image above)?

Thanks again!

That's tricky, if the shapes can be anything. I imagine using the canvas plugin to take a snapshot, then count contiguous pixels with a flood fill would be a straightforward way to go about it.

Edit: or rather than a flood fill, sizing the canvas to fit the shape and scanning line by line would be even more straightforward.

If i remember right, there was an example at past with this and works fine. Maybe was from R0J0hound or someone else.

You mean calculating the area of the shapes? The arrays have all the points of the shapes. You’d just need to loop over each edge with something like this
Area=0 Repeat p.count times — add (p(i+1).y+p(i).y)*(p(i+1).x-p(i).x)/2 to area

At least that’s the idea. It would have to be adapted to an array. And the I+1 would need to wrap around to 0 when past the end of the array.

What i mean is the original shape and the pieces.

Original shape = 100%

We cut it to X piece and go away.

So original shape now = 90%

etc etc

I will try this method you wrote. Thanks R0J0hound !

Hello R0J0hound ! I try your example without any luck.

If you find some free time, can you please share a worked example?

Thanks again!
