Introduction

There are a couple of ways to represent an axis aligned bounding box in 2D, but I think the most common is to store the minimum and maximum coordinates. With this approach, most basic operations (overlap tests, union/intersection, etc.) have simple implementations and offer decent performance.

Some time ago, I came up with a modification to this AABB representation that has the potential for better performance. I haven't seen this technique mentioned or used anywhere, but if you have seen it somehow I would appreciate it if you could let me know.

This gist is specifically aimed at VSCode users looking to get the sumneko.lua language server to work with Teardown lua files (mod-related or otherwise.)

The 3 lua files in this gist are:

• tdapi.lua: Teardown API. Generated from the official API documentation.
• tdvoxscript.lua: Teardown VoxScript API. Generated from the official VoxScript API documentation.
• tdext.lua: Extra definitions: Undocumented functions and script callbacks.

Setup

1. Download this gist and extract it somewhere on your computer, ideally somewhere permanent so you don't have to remember to change paths later.
