Chapter 16 ■ Collision Detection: Creating SVG Polygons for the Game Actors and Writing Code to Detect Collision
Figure 16-17. Change your SVG Path data from using the C (curve) data type to the L (line) data type representation
The final SVG data set is shown in Figure 16-18, and you can copy and paste that data into your Java code as well
as into an empty Notepad document and save it as its own file, named iBshape1svg.txt, so that we can do some math
next, and see exactly how much data we have reduced our collision polygon from the automatic GIMP created collision
polygon, to our hand-optimized custom collision polygon. If you import the collision data shown in Figure 16-18 in
GIMP, you will get the desired collision polygon shown in Figure 16-14 with 15 data point pairs, instead of 100!
Figure 16-18. To use optimized SVG Path data set, select the part after d= (including quotes), and paste into the code
