Detect platform that sprite is on

[evilwizard 0]

I am creating a platforming game that has multiple different platforms.

Some platforms slope up and others slope down.

Upward Sloping Platforms

* If the character moves right, his y position will increase

* If the character moves left, his y position will decrease

* The angle property of these platforms is negative

Downward Sloping Platforms

* If the character moves right, his y position will decrease

* If the character moves left, his y position will increase;

* The angle property of these platforms is positive

The following tries to find the colliding platform.

My update function looks something like this

game.physics.arcade.collide(hero, platforms, function() {
    currentPlatform = platforms.children.filter(p => p.getBounds().contains(hero.x, hero.y))[0];
        gameState.moveRight();
        gameState.moveLeft();
    });
}

I need this platform to calculate whether the character will move upwards or downwards. Here is an example

if (cursors.right.isDown) {
    if (currentPlatform) {
        hero.y = currentPlatform.angle < 0 ? hero.y - 0.04 : hero.y + 0.04;
    }
}

This obviously doesn't work, and the 0.04 value is hard coded, because I can't figure out how to increment with an angle.

I've also tried calling sprite.body.touching, which returns the following

Object {none: true, up: false, down: false, left: false, right: false}

I am completely lost right now.

I managed to solve the angular velocity with the nifty game.physics.arcade.velocityFromAngle function..

However, the problem of detecting the current platform the sprite is on persists.

It will be in the arguments to the callback:

game.physics.arcade.collide(hero, platforms, function(collidingHero, collidingPlatform) {/*…*/});
