Unigine.PhysicalTrigger Class
Inherits: | Physical |
Physical triggers fire callbacks when a physical object gets inside or outside of them. To be detected by the trigger, physical objects are required to have at the same time both:
- Bodies (with matching Physical Mask)
For BodyDummy to trigger PhysicalTrigger, you need to call updateContacts() first.
- Shapes (with matching Collision mask)
To force update of the physical trigger updateContacts() can be called. After that, you can access all updated data about the contacts in the same frame. However, callback functions will still be executed only when the next engine function is called: that is, before flush() (in the current frame), or before theupdate() (in the next frame) — whatever comes first.
Usage Example
In this example a physical trigger and two boxes, each with a body and a shape, are created. When a box with matching physical mask enters the physical trigger the trigger_enter() function is called, when it leaves the trigger - the trigger_leave() function is called.
