EdgeShape

Available since LÖVE 0.8.0
This shape is not supported in earlier versions.

Edge shapes are line segments. They can be used to create the boundaries of your terrain. The shape does not have volume and can only collide with PolygonShape and CircleShape.

Constructors

love.physics.newEdgeShapeCreates a new EdgeShape.
