Creating a physics object for a diagonal line

[tproper]

I have a line with multiple points:

// Loop through all points and draw each line segment
var graphics = game.add.graphics(0, 0);
for(var i = 1; i < line.length; i++){

	var from_x = line[i-1][0]; // x
	var from_y = line[i-1][1]; // y
	var to_x = line[i][0]; // x
	var to_y = line[i][1]; // y

	// Draw segment
	graphics.lineStyle(5, 0xff0000);
	graphics.moveTo(from_x, from_y);
	graphics.lineTo(to_x, to_y);

}

I want to make a physics body out of this so that other bodies will collide with the shape of the line. How can I do this?

Hi tproper,

check this example here: https://phaser.io/examples/v2/arcade-physics/one-way-collision

It should be pretty straightforward. Replace the sprite (Atari) object with your graphics (line) object.

I actually tried something along those lines. The problem with creating it that way is that the physics body created is a rectangle shape made around the diagonal line. I need the line to curve, based on the different segments. Thanks though.

I have another way that is working okay now, but if you know how to make the physics body look just like the line, please let me know. I'm sure, if phaser has a way of doing it, then it would be more efficient than what I'm currently doing.
