Detailed Description

Concepts and types associated with physical entities within a world.

Concepts and types of creatable and destroyable instances that associate physical properties to simulations. These instances are typically created via a method whose name begins with the prefix of Create. Similarly, these instances are typically destroyed using a method whose name begins with the prefix of Destroy.

Note

For example, the following could be used to create a dynamic body having a one meter radius disk shape:

auto world = World{};
const auto body = world.CreateBody(BodyConf{}.UseType(BodyType::Dynamic));
const auto fixture = world.CreateFixture(
    FixtureConf{}.UseBody(body).UseShape(DiskShapeConf{1_m}));
