Any two lines cross at x=-(b1-b2)/(m1-m2). So, save an array as {-(b1-b2)/(m1-m2),m1*(-(b1-b2)/(m1-m2))+b1}, where y=m1x+b1 is the equation on the line going through Point A, and the same with 2s for Point C, to get the point at which the two rays cross. This will be Point M. Now, all you have to do, is in your polygon's array of points is replace ..., Point B, Point C, ... with ..., Point M, Point C, Point B, Point M, ... and the are will not be overlap anymore.
So basically, you're just keeping the shape by defining the "bend" and switching the points that cause the overlap.

Thanks, i'll see if i can implement that
As for the places it doesn't quite look correct, it's due to the resolution of the check. It checks along 360 angles from the light source, obviously the further away the bigger the gap will be, I could increase the number of checks but at the moment 360 is enough, it's not perfect, but it looks good
