line-circle-collision
Performs a line-circle collision test, returning true if they intersect. Algorithm from 2D Game Collision by Thomas Schwarzl.
var collide = require('line-circle-collision')
var circle = [5, 5],
radius = 25,
a = [5, 6],
b = [10, 10]
var hit = collide(a, b, circle, radius)
console.log(hit)

Usage
collide(a, b, circle, radius[, nearest])
Performs a collision test with the line a-b
and the given circle. Returns true if collision occurred.
a
, b
, and circle
are expected to be 2D vectors in the form of an array.
If nearest
is passed, the nearest point found during the intersection test will be stored into that vector. This is useful if you need to find the nearest point along the line for the intersection test. If the hit returns false, you should not expect the value of nearest
to have changed.
