Using for hit testing

[dethe]

Would this library be appropriate for hit testing (detecting clicks on a sprite)? And is there a better way to check if a point is in the polygon with the api than to create a small circle and check for collision?

I never thought of using this for hit testing, but yes, if you create a tiny (e.g. 1x1) rectangle and check if it is colliding with the polygon it should let you know whether it's inside or not.

I'll think about adding some hit test helper methods to the API.

That would be awesome, thanks! I'll happily buy you a beer for that feature ;-) (I'm also in Vancouver)

Give the new pointInCircle and pointInPolygon functions a try.

Awesome, will try that. Thanks again!
