You can use the material to add rolling resistance to a rigid body. Rolling resistance can be used to stop Here is how to get the material of a collider and how to modify some of its properties: \\

set a positive value using the \texttt{Material::\allowbreak setRollingResistance()} method to increase resistance. \\
