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 function whose name begins with the prefix of Create. Similarly, these instances are typically destroyed using a Destroy function.

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 shape = CreateShape(world, Shape{DiskShapeConf{1_m}});
const auto body = CreateBody(world, BodyConf{}.Use(BodyType::Dynamic).Use(shape));
