Module: PseudoGame.graphics.effects

a module with some premade visual effects

Functions

PseudoGame.graphics.effects:blend (polygon_collection1, polygon_collection2, blend_func[, blend_collection])	get the polygons that represent the intersection of two collections
PseudoGame.graphics.effects:outline (polygon_collection, thickness, color[, outline_collection])	creates polygons along the edges of some polygons
PseudoGame.graphics.effects:glow (polygon_collection, intensity, radius, radius_step, angle_step[, glow_collection])	renders a glow effect by rendering polygons many times, this is extremely laggy
PseudoGame.graphics.effects:gradient_glow (polygon_collection, size, initial_alpha_divisor, corner_resolution[, glow_collection])	renders a glow effect by creating gradients around the polygons
PseudoGame.graphics.effects:rotate (angle)	generates a transformation function that rotates vertices
PseudoGame.graphics.effects:mirror (mirror_x, mirror_y)	generates a transformation function that mirrors vertices

Fields

draw_directly

setting effects.draw_directly to true will make the effects, that take a polygon collection to output to, draw directly to the screen instead

Functions

🔗 PseudoGame.graphics.effects:blend (polygon_collection1, polygon_collection2, blend_func[, blend_collection])

get the polygons that represent the intersection of two collections

Parameters:

Name		Type(s)	Description
polygon_collection1		PolygonCollection	the first collection
polygon_collection2		PolygonCollection	the second collection
blend_func		function	this function determines the color of the new polygons based on the color of the two intersected ones, so it should take r0, g0, b0, a0, r1, g1, b1, a1 and return r, g, b, a
blend_collection	Optional	PolygonCollection	the collection the resulting polygons are added to (the collection is cleared before the operation) (not required if direct drawing is enabled)

🔗 PseudoGame.graphics.effects:outline (polygon_collection, thickness, color[, outline_collection])

creates polygons along the edges of some polygons

Parameters:

Name		Type(s)	Description
polygon_collection		PolygonCollection	the polygon collection the outlines should be made for
thickness		number	the thickness of the outlines
color		table	the color of the outlines, should be formatted like this: {r, g, b, a}
outline_collection	Optional	PolygonCollection	the polygon collection the outlines will be added to (the collection is cleared before the operation) (not required if direct drawing is enabled)

🔗 PseudoGame.graphics.effects:glow (polygon_collection, intensity, radius, radius_step, angle_step[, glow_collection])

renders a glow effect by rendering polygons many times, this is extremely laggy

Parameters:

Name		Type(s)	Description
polygon_collection		PolygonCollection	the polygon collection the glow should be made for
intensity		number	the intensity of the effect (should be between 0 and 1)
radius		number	the radius of the effect
radius_step		number	the step size of the effect in the outer direction (lower values can lead to a lot of lag)
angle_step		number	the step size of the effect around the object (lower values can lead to a lot of lag)
glow_collection	Optional	PolygonCollection	the polygon collection the glow will be added to (the collection is cleared before the operation) (not required if direct drawing is enabled)

🔗 PseudoGame.graphics.effects:gradient_glow (polygon_collection, size, initial_alpha_divisor, corner_resolution[, glow_collection])

renders a glow effect by creating gradients around the polygons

Parameters:

Name		Type(s)	Description
polygon_collection		PolygonCollection	the polygon collection the glow should be made for
size		number	the size of the effect (in non zoom factor adjusted pixels)
initial_alpha_divisor		number	the number the alpha right at the edge of the polygon will be divided by (to create some contrast, otherwise the effect looks like a blur)
corner_resolution		number	the amount of vertices to add in the corners (has to be >= 1)
glow_collection	Optional	PolygonCollection	the polygon collection the glow will be added to (the collection is cleared before the operation) (not required if direct drawing is enabled)

🔗 PseudoGame.graphics.effects:rotate (angle)

generates a transformation function that rotates vertices

Parameters:

Name		Type(s)	Description
angle		number	the angle to rotate

Returns:

function the transformation function

🔗 PseudoGame.graphics.effects:mirror (mirror_x, mirror_y)

generates a transformation function that mirrors vertices

Parameters:

Name		Type(s)	Description
mirror_x		bool	whether it should mirror along the x axis
mirror_y		bool	whether it should mirror along the y axis

Returns:

function the transformation function

Fields

🔗 draw_directly

setting effects.draw_directly to true will make the effects, that take a polygon collection to output to, draw directly to the screen instead
