Unigine::Shape Class

Header:#include <UniginePhysics.h>

This class creates collision shapes that approximate the finite volume of physical bodies and allow them to collide. Shapes are assigned to a body and are positioned in its local coordinates.

Shape Class

Members


Math::vec3 getArea()

Returns areas of shape projections on three axes: x, y, and z.

Return value

A triple of projection areas.

void setBody(const Ptr<Body> & body)

Sets a body, to which the shape belongs.

Arguments

  • const Ptr<Body> & body - Body, to which the shape belongs.

Returns the body, to which the shape belongs.

Return value

Body, to which the shape belongs.

void setBodyShapeTransform(const Math::mat4 & transform)

Sets a transformation matrix for the shape (in the coordinates of the body). This matrix describes position and orientation of the shape. This method is identical to setShapeTransform().

Arguments

  • const Math::mat4 & transform - Transformation matrix

Math::mat4 getBodyShapeTransform()

void setCollisionMask(int mask)

Sets a collision mask for the shape. Two objects collide if they both have matching masks. See also details on additional collision exclusion mask.

Arguments

  • int mask - Integer, each bit of which is a mask.

int getCollisionMask()

Return value

Integer, each bit of which is a mask.

void setContinuous(int continuous)

Enables or disables continuous collision detection for spheres or capsules. Enabled CDD incurs almost no performance penalty. Disabling CCD allows to avoid physics artifacts, if there are any.

Arguments

  • int continuous - Positive value to enable CCD; 0 to disable.

int isContinuous()

Returns a value indicating if continuous collision detection for spheres or capsules is enabled. Enabled CCD incurs almost no performance penalty. Disabling CCD allows to avoid physics artifacts, if there are any.

Notice
World space coordinates are used for this function.

Usage Example

The following example shows how you can get the intersection information by using the PhysicsIntersection class. In this example the line is an invisible traced line from the point of the camera (vec3 p0) to the point of the mouse pointer (vec3 p1). It is supposed that you have a dynamic mesh with a body and a shape assigned. The executing sequence is the following:

  • Define and initialize two points (p0 and p1) by using the Player::getDirectionFromScreen() function.
  • Create an instance of the PhysicsIntersection class to get the information of the intersection point.
  • Check, if there is a intersection with a shape and save the result in the integer variable.
  • In this example, if there is an intersection of mouse direction with a shape, the PhysicsIntersection class instance gets the intersection point. The result is shown in the console.
Source code (C++)
/* ... */
// initialize points of the mouse direction
Vec3 p0, p1;

// get the current player (camera)
PlayerPtr player = Game::get()->getPlayer();
if (player.get() == NULL)
	return 0;
// get width and height of the current application window
int width = App::get()->getWidth();
int height = App::get()->getHeight();
// get the current X and Y coordinates of the mouse pointer
int mouse_x = App::get()->getMouseX();
int mouse_y = App::get()->getMouseY();
// get the mouse direction from the player's position (p0) to the mouse cursor pointer (p1)
player->getDirectionFromScreen(p0, p1, mouse_x, mouse_y, width, height);

// create the instance of the PhysicsIntersection object to save the information about the intersection
PhysicsIntersectionPtr intersection = PhysicsIntersection::create();
// create an integer variable to check the result of intersection
int result = 0;
result = shape->getIntersection(p0, p1, intersection);
// if there was an intersection, show the message in console
if (result != 0)
{
	Log::message("Intersection point: (%f %f %f) \n", intersection->getPoint().x, intersection->getPoint().y, intersection->getPoint().z);
}
/* ... */

Arguments

  • const Math::Vec3 & p0 - Start point of the line.
  • const Math::Vec3 & p1 - End point of the line.
  • const Ptr<PhysicsIntersection> & intersection - Intersection mask.

Return value

Reference to the first intersected shape, if found; otherwise - 0.

int getIntersection(const Math::Vec3 & p0, const Math::Vec3 & p1, Math::Vec3 * ret_point, Math::vec3 * ret_normal)
