Detailed Description

Base class for all physics constraints. A constraint removes one or more degrees of freedom for a rigid body.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Constraint()

JPH_OVERRIDE_NEW_DELETE Constraint::Constraint ( const ConstraintSettings & inSettings )

inlineexplicit

Constructor.

◆ ~Constraint()

virtual Constraint::~Constraint ( )

virtualdefault

Virtual destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ BuildIslands()

virtual void Constraint::BuildIslands	(	uint32	inConstraintIndex,
		IslandBuilder &	ioBuilder,
		BodyManager &	inBodyManager )

pure virtual

Link bodies that are connected by this constraint in the island builder.

Implemented in TwoBodyConstraint, and VehicleConstraint.

◆ BuildIslandSplits()

virtual uint Constraint::BuildIslandSplits ( LargeIslandSplitter & ioSplitter ) const

pure virtual

Link bodies that are connected by this constraint in the same split. Returns the split index.

Implemented in TwoBodyConstraint, and VehicleConstraint.

◆ DrawConstraint()

virtual void Constraint::DrawConstraint ( DebugRenderer * inRenderer ) const

pure virtual

Implemented in ConeConstraint, DistanceConstraint, FixedConstraint, GearConstraint, HingeConstraint, PathConstraint, PointConstraint, PulleyConstraint, RackAndPinionConstraint, SixDOFConstraint, SliderConstraint, SwingTwistConstraint, and VehicleConstraint.

◆ DrawConstraintLimits()

virtual void Constraint::DrawConstraintLimits ( DebugRenderer * inRenderer ) const

inlinevirtual

Reimplemented in ConeConstraint, HingeConstraint, SixDOFConstraint, SliderConstraint, SwingTwistConstraint, and VehicleConstraint.

◆ DrawConstraintReferenceFrame()

virtual void Constraint::DrawConstraintReferenceFrame ( DebugRenderer * inRenderer ) const

inlinevirtual

Reimplemented in TwoBodyConstraint.

◆ GetConstraintPriority()

uint32 Constraint::GetConstraintPriority ( ) const

inline

Priority of the constraint when solving. Higher numbers have are more likely to be solved correctly. Note that if you want a deterministic simulation and you cannot guarantee the order in which constraints are added/removed, you can make the priority for all constraints unique to get a deterministic ordering.

◆ GetConstraintSettings()

virtual Ref< ConstraintSettings > Constraint::GetConstraintSettings ( ) const

pure virtual

Debug function to convert a constraint to its settings, note that this will not save to which bodies the constraint is connected to.

Implemented in ConeConstraint, DistanceConstraint, FixedConstraint, GearConstraint, HingeConstraint, PathConstraint, PointConstraint, PulleyConstraint, RackAndPinionConstraint, SixDOFConstraint, SliderConstraint, SwingTwistConstraint, and VehicleConstraint.

◆ GetDrawConstraintSize()

float Constraint::GetDrawConstraintSize ( ) const

inline

Size of constraint when drawing it through the debug renderer.

◆ GetEnabled()

bool Constraint::GetEnabled ( ) const

inline

Test if a constraint is enabled.

◆ GetNumPositionStepsOverride()

int Constraint::GetNumPositionStepsOverride ( ) const

inline

◆ GetNumVelocityStepsOverride()

int Constraint::GetNumVelocityStepsOverride ( ) const

inline

◆ GetSubType()

virtual EConstraintSubType Constraint::GetSubType ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the sub type of a constraint.

Implemented in ConeConstraint, DistanceConstraint, FixedConstraint, GearConstraint, HingeConstraint, PathConstraint, PointConstraint, PulleyConstraint, RackAndPinionConstraint, SixDOFConstraint, SliderConstraint, SwingTwistConstraint, and VehicleConstraint.

◆ GetType()

virtual EConstraintType Constraint::GetType ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Get the type of a constraint.

Reimplemented in TwoBodyConstraint.

◆ GetUserData()

uint64 Constraint::GetUserData ( ) const

inline

Access to the user data, can be used for anything by the application.

◆ IsActive()

virtual bool Constraint::IsActive ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Reimplemented in PathConstraint, TwoBodyConstraint, and VehicleConstraint.

◆ NotifyShapeChanged()

virtual void Constraint::NotifyShapeChanged	(	const BodyID &	inBodyID,
		Vec3Arg	inDeltaCOM )

pure virtual

Notify the constraint that the shape of a body has changed and that its center of mass has moved by inDeltaCOM. Bodies don't know which constraints are connected to them so the user is responsible for notifying the relevant constraints when a body changes.

Parameters

inBodyID	ID of the body that has changed
inDeltaCOM	The delta of the center of mass of the body (shape->GetCenterOfMass() - shape_before_change->GetCenterOfMass())

Implemented in ConeConstraint, DistanceConstraint, FixedConstraint, GearConstraint, HingeConstraint, PathConstraint, PointConstraint, PulleyConstraint, RackAndPinionConstraint, SixDOFConstraint, SliderConstraint, SwingTwistConstraint, and VehicleConstraint.

virtual

Saving state for replay.

Reimplemented in ConeConstraint, DistanceConstraint, FixedConstraint, GearConstraint, HingeConstraint, PathConstraint, PointConstraint, PulleyConstraint, RackAndPinionConstraint, SixDOFConstraint, SliderConstraint, SwingTwistConstraint, and VehicleConstraint.

◆ SetConstraintPriority()

void Constraint::SetConstraintPriority ( uint32 inPriority )

inline

◆ SetDrawConstraintSize()

void Constraint::SetDrawConstraintSize ( float inSize )

inline

◆ SetEnabled()

void Constraint::SetEnabled ( bool inEnabled )

inline

Enable / disable this constraint. This can e.g. be used to implement a breakable constraint by detecting that the constraint impulse (see e.g. PointConstraint::GetTotalLambdaPosition) went over a certain limit and then disabling the constraint. Note that although a disabled constraint will not affect the simulation in any way anymore, it does incur some processing overhead. Alternatively you can remove a constraint from the constraint manager (which may be more costly if you want to disable the constraint for a short while).

◆ SetNumPositionStepsOverride()

void Constraint::SetNumPositionStepsOverride ( int inN )

inline

Override for the number of position velocity iterations to run, the total amount of iterations is the max of PhysicsSettings::mNumPositionSteps and this for all constraints in the island.

◆ SetNumVelocityStepsOverride()

void Constraint::SetNumVelocityStepsOverride ( int inN )

inline

Override for the number of solver velocity iterations to run, the total amount of iterations is the max of PhysicsSettings::mNumVelocitySteps and this for all constraints in the island.

◆ SetupVelocityConstraint()

virtual void Constraint::SetupVelocityConstraint ( float inDeltaTime )

pure virtual

Implemented in ConeConstraint, DistanceConstraint, FixedConstraint, GearConstraint, HingeConstraint, PathConstraint, PointConstraint, PulleyConstraint, RackAndPinionConstraint, SixDOFConstraint, SliderConstraint, SwingTwistConstraint, and VehicleConstraint.

protected

Helper function to copy settings back to constraint settings for this base class.
