I'm trying to create a hyperdrive effect, like from Star Wars, where the stars have a motion trail. I've gotten as far as creating the motion trail on a single circle, it still looks like the trail is going down in the y direction and not forwards or positive in the z direction.
Also, how could I do this with (many) randomly placed circles as if they were stars?
My code is on jsfiddle (https://jsfiddle.net/5m7x5zxu/) and below:
var canvas = document.querySelector("canvas");
var context = canvas.getContext("2d");
var xPos = 180;
var yPos = 100;
var motionTrailLength = 16;
var positions = [];
function storeLastPosition(xPos, yPos) {
// push an item
positions.push({
x: xPos,
y: yPos
});
//get rid of first item
if (positions.length > motionTrailLength) {
positions.pop();
}
}
function update() {
context.clearRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
for (var i = positions.length-1; i > 0; i--) {
var ratio = (i - 1) / positions.length;
drawCircle(positions[i].x, positions[i].y, ratio);
}
drawCircle(xPos, yPos, "source");
var k=2;
storeLastPosition(xPos, yPos);
// update position
if (yPos > 125) {
positions.pop();
}
else{
yPos += k*1.1;
}
requestAnimationFrame(update);
}
update();
function drawCircle(x, y, r) {
if (r == "source") {
r = 1;
} else {
r*=1.1;
}
context.beginPath();
context.arc(x, y, 3, 0, 2 * Math.PI, true);
context.fillStyle = "rgba(255, 255, 255, " + parseFloat(1-r) + ")";
context.fill();
}
Canvas feedback and particles.
This type of FX can be done many ways.
You could just use a particle systems and draw stars (as lines) moving away from a central point, as the speed increase you increase the line length. When at low speed the line becomes a circle if you set ctx.lineWidth > 1 and ctx.lineCap = "round"
To add to the FX you can use render feedback as I think you have done by rendering the canvas over its self. If you render it slightly larger you get a zoom FX. If you use ctx.globalCompositeOperation = "lighter" you can increase the stars intensity as you speed up to make up for the overall loss of brightness as stars move faster.
Example
I got carried away so you will have to sift through the code to find what you need.
The particle system uses the Point object and a special array called bubbleArray to stop GC hits from janking the animation.
You can use just an ordinary array if you want. The particles are independent of the bubble array. When they have moved outside the screen they are move to a pool and used again when a new particle is needed. The update function moves them and the draw Function draws them I guess LOL
The function loop is the main loop and adds and draws particles (I have set the particle count to 400 but should handle many more)
The hyper drive is operated via the mouse button. Press for on, let go for off. (It will distort the text if it's being displayed)
The canvas feedback is set via that hyperSpeed variable, the math is a little complex. The sCurce function just limits the value to 0,1 in this case to stop alpha from going over or under 1,0. The hyperZero is just the sCurve return for 1 which is the hyper drives slowest speed.
I have pushed the feedback very close to the limit. In the first few lines of the loop function you can set the top speed if(mouse.button){ if(hyperSpeed < 1.75){ Over this value 1.75 and you will start to get bad FX, at about 2 the whole screen will just go white (I think that was where)
Just play with it and if you have questions ask in the comments.

I appreciate this is not strictly a code question - but I've not quite got to that point - let me explain...
I have a requirement to enable a user to draw (as simple freehand lines) onto an large image - and be able to zoom, pan and pinch (on an iPad).
This is driving me a bit crazy. I've looked at so many libraries, code samples, products etc and there seems to be nothing out there that meets this requirement i.e. drawing (one touch) WITH (multi-touch) pinch, zoom, pan. Lots of paint.net, signature captures etc, but nothing that supports the multi-touch bit.
I have tried to adapt various libraries to acheive what I want (e.g. combining an old version of sketch.js with hammer.js) but to be honest I've struggled. I do suspect that I will have to write my own at the end of the day and use something like hammer.js (excellent by the way) for gestures.
Anyway just in case someone out there has come across a library that might fit my needs or can point me in the right direction that would be appreciated.
Feel free to give me a hard time for avoiding coding it myself ;-)
Custom touch.
The example shows custom one touch draw and 2point pinch scale, rotate, pan using the standard browser touch events.
You need to prevent the standard gestures via the CSS rule touch-action: none; on the body of the document or it will not work.
Pointer
The pointer object which is initialised with
const pointer = setupPointingDevice(canvas);
Handles the touch. Use pointer.count to see how many touches there are, the first touch point is available as pointer.x, pointer.y. An array of touch points can be accessed as pointer.points[touchNumber]
View
The is an object at the bottom that handles the view. Its just a 2D matrix with some additional functions to handle the pinch. view.setPinch(point,point) starts the pinch with the 2 points as the reference. then view.movePinch(point,point) for updates
The view is used to draw the drawing canvas on the display canvas. To get the world (drawing coordinates) you need to convert from touch screen coordinates (canvas pixels) to the transformed drawing. Use view.toWorld(pointer.points[0]); to get the coordinates of the pinched drawing.
To set the main canvas transform use view.apply();
Not perfect
Humans tend to be sloppy and the interface to the touch zoom needs to delay drawing a little bit as the 2 touches for a pinch action may not happen at once. When a single touch is detected the app starts recording drawing points. If after several frames there is no second touch then it locks into drawing mode. No touch events are lost.
If a second touch occurs within several frames of the first it is assumed that a pinch action is being used. The app dumps any previous drawing points and set the mode to pinch.
When the app is in draw or pinch mode they are lock until no touches are detected. This is to prevent unwanted behaviour due to sloppy touching.
Demo
The demo is meant only as an example.
NOTE this will not function for non touch devices. I throw a error is no touch is found.
NOTE I have done only the most basic of agent detection. Android, and iPhones, iPads, and anything that reports multi touch.
NOTE Pinch events often result in two points dragging into one. This example does not handle such event correctly. You should switch to pan mode when a pinch gesture becomes a single touch and turn of rotate and scale.

I am new to javascript, and am trying to make a game that would hopefully end up isometric (I don't care so much about that, as long as I get an idea of how to). My code is:

function startGame() {

myGameArea.start();
}
var myGameArea = {
canvas : document.createElement("canvas"),

this.canvas.height = 270;
this.context = this.canvas.getContext("2d");
document.body.insertBefore(this.canvas, document.body.childNodes[0]);
this.frameNo = 0;
this.interval = setInterval(updateGameArea, 20);
window.addEventListener('keydown', function (e) {

myGameArea.keys = (myGameArea.keys || []);
myGameArea.keys[e.keyCode] = (e.type == "keydown");

which I mostly copied and pasted from another website (http://www.w3schools.com/games/tryit.asp?filename=trygame_movement_keyboard). What I want to know is how to make it so that when the player presses space, myGamePiece goes up and down to appear to be jumping; making it move up a certain number of spaces, but then return back to the coordinates it was before.
Game Physics. JUMPING the basics
Real world V game world.
Game jumping is usually done non deterministically, that means you are not sure when or where the play may land. Very much not like real life. In real life once you jump, where and when you land is up to gravity and air friction, unless you can fly the result of jumping is up to the universe.
In the game world this is far from true. The jumper can usually change direction, double jump, do some hang time, or combo accelerated power punch down. All these things can happen at any time depending on the input of the user. Also gravity in the game world does not act like real gravity, sometimes some thing fall faster because they are heavy, some things need a second or to to feel the effect of gravity. The list goes on.
FALLING
BUT with all that said the game must still do the important thing that makes falling unlike an elevator ride. When in free fall you accelerate, every instance of time your speed changes, when you jump up you decelerate, when you fall you accelerate. We have our position y and our speed dy (delta y) to add gravity (g) we add a constant to the speed, when traveling up the screen (dy is < 0) or down the gravity changes the speed in the same direction at the same rate.
So every frame, add gravity dy += g then add our speed to our position y += dy. And that is it a very simple simulation of gravity, which if you measure time in game frames is also a perfect simulation of real gravity (near a big thing like the earth)
Thus the best way to do things like jumping, and the gravity that comes into play is to do it frame by frame.
Lets define what we need to do a jump.
A simple character
var c = {
x : ?, // this character's position
y : ?,
dx : ?, // the amount to move per frame The players velocity in x and y
dy : ?,
w : ?, // the character's width and height
h : ?,
onGround : false, // a flag to indicate on the ground or not
}
And some environment info
const GROUND_Y = canvas.height - 10; // where the ground is
const GRAVITY = 1; // in pixels per frame
Then every frame we update the character checking if on the ground and if not applying gravity and checking for the ground.
c.update = function(){
if(this.onGround){ // nothing to do but wait
}else{ // must be in the air
// Every frame the player accelerates down by the pull of gravity
// so increase the player y speed
this.dy += GRAVITY; // apply the gravity to the speed.
// now add the y speed to the y position
this.y += this.dy;
// Now we must check for the ground which if the player position x,y is for
// its center the ground will be half it's height away
if(this.y + (this.h / 2) > GROUND_Y){ // have we hit the ground
// yes stop downward motion
this.dy = 0;
// the speed may have put the character slightly below the ground
// so fix the postion so that it is correct
this.y = GROUND_Y - this.h /2; // set position to the ground - half its height
// And set the flag to indicate that the character is on the ground
this.onGround = true;
}
}
}
So that is gravity taken care of.
JUMPING
To jump we apply a force that accelerates us away from the ground. This force is only for an instant, once of the ground we have nothing to push against so we can apply no more force, it is up to gravity to bring us down. As gravity has been sorted in the above function all we need to do is the apply the jumping force.
const JUMP_ACCELERATION = GRAVITY * 20; // the bigger this number the higher the jump
Now add the function to make the jump
c.jump = function(){
// check if we can jump. That is are we on the ground
if(this.onGround){
// flag that we are no longer on the ground and left to the will of gravity
this.onGround = false;
// then apply the change in speed.
this.dy -= JUMP_ACCELERATION; // subtract jump accel from the speed
// to give a negative speed (up)
}
}
And that is it, the gravity function will take care of everything for you so you must call the c.update Function once every frame, the jump function you call only once per jump.
JUMPING IT DEMO
Click mouse to jump, a non challenging flappy It.
Taken from an old project this demo shows a very simple jumping character. The object name is it and the functions you want to look at are it.update(), it.jump(), and it.preJump() The code you want is between the comments //Answer code
All the character can do is jump, it can multy jump, and can jump higher if you click and hold the mouse, then release to jump.

I recommend you check this (part 1) and this(part 2) tutorial that I have followed.
Your "jump" animation just boils down to creating a jump function that sets a max jump height to your object and sets a boolean to var jumping = true. As long as your character is "jumping" you increment the y position of your character.
Once you get to your desired height, create a land function that does the opposite.
Make a Javascript setinterval to update the height of object after every 20ms.
after every 20s set height = Initial_Height + u*t - (1/2)gt^2
use g = 9.8, u = some constant according to your screen.
t = Time passed till now. Which mean, Initially t=0, on first update t=20ms, on second update t=40ms.
Basically, you are simulating real life jumping in gravity.
I'm building a small application using canvas. My application will have an option to fill a black and white image.
I downloaded a code and is working fine, but It only works when the image stroke is black. All images that I am going to use have grey stroke.
So, I would like to know what do I need to change to put the code working with grey strokes, instead of black strokes.
Here the code:
https://jsfiddle.net/mx0fmdh3/
HTML:
<canvas id="canvas" width=250 height=243></canvas>
JavaScript
var canvas = document.getElementById("canvas");
var context = canvas.getContext("2d");
var $canvas = $("#canvas");
var canvasOffset = $canvas.offset();
var offsetX = canvasOffset.left;
var offsetY = canvasOffset.top;
var canvasWidth = canvas.width;
var canvasHeight = canvas.height;
var strokeColor = {
r: 152,
g: 152,
b: 152
};
var fillColor = {
r: 101,
g: 155,
b: 65
};
var fillData;
var strokeData;
// load image
var img = new Image();
img.onload = function () {
start();
}
img.crossOrigin = "anonymous";
img.src = "http://i.imgur.com/kjY1kiE.png";
function matchstrokeColor(r, g, b, a) {
// never recolor the initial black divider strokes
// must check for near black because of anti-aliasing
return (r + g + b < 100 && a === 155);
}
function matchStartColor(pixelPos, startR, startG, startB) {
// get the color to be matched
var r = strokeData.data[pixelPos],
g = strokeData.data[pixelPos + 1],
b = strokeData.data[pixelPos + 2],
a = strokeData.data[pixelPos + 3];
// If current pixel of the outline image is black-ish
if (matchstrokeColor(r, g, b, a)) {
return false;
}
// get the potential replacement color
r = fillData.data[pixelPos];
g = fillData.data[pixelPos + 1];
b = fillData.data[pixelPos + 2];
// If the current pixel matches the clicked color
if (r === startR && g === startG && b === startB) {
return true;
}
// If current pixel matches the new color
if (r === fillColor.r && g === fillColor.g && b === fillColor.b) {
return false;
}
return true;
}

Thank you.
The match stroke function:
function matchstrokeColor(r, g, b, a) {
// never recolor the initial black divider strokes
// must check for near black because of anti-aliasing
return (r + g + b < 100 && a === 155);
}
is only check whether rgb is a small number and is a painted stroke, as you directly paint your image on that canvas, rgb should now become something else, and alpha is now 255(or unpredictable if your image has alpha).
Try change it to something that is aware of the storke's color, like sqrt distance:
// A small threshold would make it fill closer to stroke.
var strokeThreshold = 1;
function matchstrokeColor(r, g, b, a) {
// Use sqrt difference to decide its storke or not.
var diffr = r - strokeColor.r;
var diffg = g - strokeColor.g;
var diffb= b - strokeColor.b;
var diff = Math.sqrt(diffr * diffr + diffg * diffg + diffb * diffb) / 3;
return (diff < strokeThreshold);
}
