How can i create a 2D 'curve' collider

A.Quiroga picture A.Quiroga · Sep 21, 2014 · Viewed 9.9k times · Source

I'm trying to search an smart way to create curves like the next one (using Unity3d 2D part (without using mesh collider))) , but i didn't found one

enter image description here

Any help would be appreciated.

seeing that the last answer (removed) doesn't fit what i want. I have made myself BezierCollider2D using Bezier curves between 2 points and EdgeCollider2D.

VERSION 1

BezierCollider2D.cs

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;

[RequireComponent (typeof (EdgeCollider2D))]
public class BezierCollider2D : MonoBehaviour 
{
    public Vector2 firstPoint;
    public Vector2 secondPoint;

    public Vector2 handlerFirstPoint;
    public Vector2 handlerSecondPoint;

    public int pointsQuantity;

   Vector3 CalculateBezierPoint(float t,Vector3 p0,Vector3 handlerP0,Vector3 handlerP1,Vector3 p1)
   {
       float u = 1.0f - t;
       float tt = t * t;
       float uu = u * u;
       float uuu = uu * u;
       float ttt = tt * t;

       Vector3 p = uuu * p0; //first term
       p += 3f * uu * t * handlerP0; //second term
       p += 3f * u * tt * handlerP1; //third term
       p += ttt * p1; //fourth term

       return p;
    }

    public Vector2[] calculate2DPoints()
    {
        List<Vector2> points = new List<Vector2>();

        points.Add(firstPoint);
        for(int i=1;i<pointsQuantity;i++)
        {
            points.Add(CalculateBezierPoint((1f/pointsQuantity)*i,firstPoint,handlerFirstPoint,handlerSecondPoint,secondPoint));
        }
        points.Add(secondPoint);

        return points.ToArray();
   }

}

BezierCollider2DEditor.cs

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEditor;
using System.Collections;

[CustomEditor(typeof(BezierCollider2D))] 
public class BezierCollider2DEditor : Editor 
{
    BezierCollider2D bezierCollider;
    EdgeCollider2D edgeCollider;

    int lastPointsQuantity = 0;
    Vector2 lastFirstPoint = Vector2.zero;
    Vector2 lastHandlerFirstPoint = Vector2.zero;
    Vector2 lastSecondPoint = Vector2.zero;
    Vector2 lastHandlerSecondPoint = Vector2.zero;

    public override void OnInspectorGUI() 
    {
        bezierCollider = (BezierCollider2D) target;

        edgeCollider = bezierCollider.GetComponent<EdgeCollider2D>();

        if (edgeCollider != null)
        {
            bezierCollider.pointsQuantity = EditorGUILayout.IntField ("curve points",bezierCollider.pointsQuantity, GUILayout.MinWidth(100));
            bezierCollider.firstPoint = EditorGUILayout.Vector2Field ("first point",bezierCollider.firstPoint, GUILayout.MinWidth(100));
            bezierCollider.handlerFirstPoint = EditorGUILayout.Vector2Field ("handler first Point",bezierCollider.handlerFirstPoint, GUILayout.MinWidth(100));
            bezierCollider.secondPoint = EditorGUILayout.Vector2Field ("second point",bezierCollider.secondPoint, GUILayout.MinWidth(100));
            bezierCollider.handlerSecondPoint = EditorGUILayout.Vector2Field ("handler secondPoint",bezierCollider.handlerSecondPoint, GUILayout.MinWidth(100));

            EditorUtility.SetDirty(bezierCollider);

            if (bezierCollider.pointsQuantity > 0  && !bezierCollider.firstPoint.Equals(bezierCollider.secondPoint) &&
                (
                    lastPointsQuantity != bezierCollider.pointsQuantity ||
                    lastFirstPoint != bezierCollider.firstPoint ||
                    lastHandlerFirstPoint != bezierCollider.handlerFirstPoint ||
                    lastSecondPoint != bezierCollider.secondPoint ||
                    lastHandlerSecondPoint != bezierCollider.handlerSecondPoint
                ))
            {
                edgeCollider.points = bezierCollider.calculate2DPoints();
            }

        }
    }
}
