Description:
Checks if a point is inside a polygon defined by multiple vertices.
Parameters:
(px, py, x1, y1, x2, y2, ...)
px, py: The coordinates of the point to be checked.
x1, y1: The coordinates of the first vertex of the polygon as floating points.
x2, y2: The coordinates of the second vertex of the polygon as floating points.
...: The coordinates of subsequent vertices of the polygon.
You need to provide atleast 3 vertices to this function.
Return Values:
Returns true if the point is inside the polygon, otherwise returns false.
Example
local inside = InPoly(3, 4, 0, 0, 6, 0, 6, 6, 0, 6); if(inside) print("The point (3,4) is inside the polygon."); else print("The point (3,4) is outside the polygon.");
