Check if position is inside a composite collider 2D

Hey guys,

I'm currently working on a platformer with the new tiletool and I'm using composite collider 2D for my walkable ground.
But now I have a spawn system for items which can appear at random position in a circle around the player.
And sometimes these items spawn inside the ground / composite collider.
I'd like to add a verification if the position isn't inside the collider.
So I was wondering if there is anyway to check if a position is inside a composite collider 2D.
I coudn't find anything on this question.


Thank you very much

 

I'm using a PolygonCollider2D for walkable ground, and had to solve this same problem. Extent is a Rect, which enforces the bounds of the game board. If your board doesn't have bounds, you can remove that check. instance.m_myLayer is a layer which is unique to the walkable ground.

Code (CSharp):

1.     public static bool OnBoard(Vector2 pos) {
2.         if (Extent.Contains(pos)) {
3.             Collider2D[] hits = Physics2D.OverlapCircleAll(pos, 0);
4.             foreach (Collider2D hit in hits) {
5.                 if (hit.gameObject.layer == instance.m_myLayer) {
6.                     return false;
7.                 }
8.             }
9.             return true;
10.         }
11.         return false;
12.     }
13.  

 

Many thank for both of your answers!
The outline mode was exactly my problem since my algorithm did something simlar like zioths.
So I just switched to polygon mode and now it works.
Thank you very much

 

Wow, thank you so much for this answer. I just assumed Outline/Polygon was just how it was shown in the editor (pretty stupid in retrospect...) and our character sometimes clipped thru the world if you hit an edge just right. Hopefully that elusive bug is now fixed. Cheers!
