Construct 3 3D Physics

Note versions 2.x.x the rapier physics engine with limited features. Use only examples with 'Rapier' in the filename.

In demo above click mouse to do raycast, create another 3DShape at the raycast hit point and apply a little impulse force. 

To further support development:

Currently supported only on the 3D Shape.

• 3D Shape: Box, Wedge, Corner-in, Corner-out, Prism, Pyramid
• Only z axis rotation (3D Shape supports other rotation with the rotate 3d behavior)
• Apply impulse (and towards position)
• Immovable / movable
• World gravity setting
  
• 3D raycast
• Set mass
• Set velocity
• Set linear, angular damping
• Set collision filter group/mask
• Apply force (and towards position)
• Apply torque
• Support 3DShape full 3D rotation using Rotate 3D Behavior.
  
• Add Trigger for raycastResult available
• Add expression for x,y,z velocity
• Physics engine runs in worker to offload main runtime thread CPU
• Kinematic Character Controller
• Spherical joint

Near term future work

• [Rapier] 3D Object support (fixed box collider first, others later)
• [Rapier] Add heightfield for sprite w/ mesh
• [Rapier] Collision group/filter
  
• [Rapier] OnCollision trigger
• [Rapier] CollisionData (from the OnCollision trigger)
• Add Trigger for raycastResult available (synchronous now anyway, but future may be async)
• Apply impulse towards position
• Detect runtime changes of C3 object size and update physics body.
  
• Heightfield
• Add expression for x,y,z velocity
  
• More 3D Shape shapes corner-in, corner-out, pyramid, prism
  
• Support 3DShape full 3D rotation using Rotate 3D Behavior.
  
• Disable collisions on body (use collision filter group/mask)
  
• More raycast options (array of all objects hit, collision filterGroup and mask, skipface), raycast to a particular body (probably identified by UID)
• Collision filterGroups and masks
• Apply force
  
• Apply torque

Usage Notes:

3D Shape

• Natively 3D Shape only supports Z axis rotation, physics will do the same.
• To implement full 3D rotation for 3D Shape (including physics) add the free Rotate 3D behavior to 3DShape.
• With both behaviors used together, the Z angle can still be overridden by C3 behavior and ACEs and the X,Y rotation will be controlled by physics.

Performance

• Use collision filter group and mask to limit the number of collision checks. For example in a platformer, immovable terrain does not need to be able to collide with itself. See the suggestions in the collisioFilter.txt file from Foozle.
• Also use filter group and mask with with raycast if it is used often.

Note versions 2.x.x use an experimental rapier physics engine with limited features. Use only examples with 'Rapier' in the filename.
