Note that this release contains some public API changes. Please read carefully the following changes before upgrading to this new version and do not hesitate to take a look at the user manual.

Added

  • A method PhysicsWorld::getCollisionBody(uint index) has been added on a physics world to retrieve a given CollisionBody
  • A method PhysicsWorld::getRigidBody(uint index) has been added on a physics world to retrieve a given RigidBody
  • A RigidBody::getLocalCenterOfMass() method has been added to retrieve the current local-space center of mass of a rigid body
  • Add PhysicsCommon class that needs to be instanciated at the beginning and is used as a factory for other objects of the library (see the user manual)
  • The RigidBody::updateLocalCenterOfMassFromColliders() method has been added to compute and set the center of mass of a body using its colliders
  • The RigidBody::updateLocalInertiaTensorFromColliders() method has been added to compute and set the local inertia tensor of a body using its colliders - The RigidBody::getLocalInertiaTensor() method has been added to retrieve the local-space inertia tensor of a rigid body
  • The RigidBody::updateMassFromColliders() method has been added to compute and set the mass of a body using its colliders
  • A Material nows has a mass density parameter that can be set using the Material::setMassDensity() method. The mass density is used to compute the mass of a collider when computing the mass of a rigid body
  • A Collider can now be a trigger. This collider will be used to only report collisions with another collider but no collision response will be applied. You can use the Collider::setIsTrigger() method for this.
  • The EventListener class now has a onTrigger() method that is called when a trigger collider is colling with another collider
  • In the EventListener, the onContact() and onTrigger() method now reports the type of event (start, stay, exit) for each contact. This way the user can know whether it's a new contact or not or when two colliders are not in contact anymore
  • A DebugRenderer class has been added in order to display debug info (colliders, AABBs, contacts, ...) in your simulation using graphics primitives (lines, triangles).
  • A RigidBody::applyForceAtLocalPosition() method has been added to apply a force at a given position of the rigid body in local-space
  • A default logger can be instanciated using the PhysicsCommon::createDefaultLogger() method

Then methods CollisionBody::removeCollider(), RigidBody::removeCollider() need to be used to remove a collider from a body.
  • The RigidBody::addCollider() method (previously addProxyShape() method) does not take a "mass" parameter anymore - The RigidBody::setCenterOfMassLocal() method has been renamed to RigidBody::setLocalCenterOfMass() - The RigidBody::setInertiaTensorLocal() method has been renamed to RigidBody::setLocalInertiaTensor()
  • Now, the local inertia tensor of a rigid body has to be set using a Vector3 instead of a Matrix3x3. You only need to provide the three diagonal values of the matrix
  • The RigidBody::recomputeMassInformation() method has been renamed to RigidBody::updateMassPropertiesFromColliders.
  • Now, you need to manually call the RigidBody::updateMassPropertiesFromColliders() method after adding colliders to a rigid body to recompute its inertia tensor, center of mass and mass. There are other methods that you can use form that (see the user manual)
