Lua methods

Call them on the node (self.node in its script, or self.node:get_node("path")). Every node also has the Node methods.

LineNode:get_property(path)

Reads an Inspector property by its path (vectors and colours as tables); “script.” reads a field of the node’s script.

local value = self.node:get_property("width")

• path LineNodeProperty|string

Returns any

LineNode:set_property(path, value, y)

Sets an Inspector property by its path: vectors as {x, y} or x, y; colours as {r, g, b[, a]} 0..1 or “#rrggbb[aa]”; enums by name; “script.” a field of the node’s script.

self.node:set_property("width", 1.5)

• path LineNodeProperty|string
• value any
• y? number

LineNode:line_set_points(points)

LineNode: replaces its points (local to the node).

self.node:get_node("Laser"):line_set_points({ {0, 0}, {120, 0} })

• points number[][] { {x, y}, … }

LineNode:line_add_point(x, y)

LineNode: appends a point (local to the node).

self.node:get_node("Path"):line_add_point(64, 32)

• x number
• y number

LineNode:line_clear()

LineNode: removes every point.

self.node:get_node("Path"):line_clear()
