RigidBody

什么是刚体?

刚体是直接由物理引擎控制以模拟物理对象行为的物体。为了定义物体的形状,必须分配一个或多个 Shape 对象。注意,设置这些形状的位置将影响物体的重心。

How to control a rigid body

A rigid body’s behavior can be altered by setting its properties, such as friction, mass, bounce, etc. These properties can be set in the Inspector or via code. See RigidBody for the full list of properties and their effects.

有几种方法可以控制刚体的运动,这取决于您的应用程序。

If you only need to place a rigid body once, for example to set its initial location, you can use the methods provided by the Spatial node, such as set_global_transform() or look_at(). However, these methods cannot be called every frame or the physics engine will not be able to correctly simulate the body’s state. As an example, consider a rigid body that you want to rotate so that it points towards another object. A common mistake when implementing this kind of behavior is to use look_at() every frame, which breaks the physics simulation. Below, we’ll demonstrate how to implement this correctly.

The fact that you can’t use set_global_transform() or look_at() methods doesn’t mean that you can’t have full control of a rigid body. Instead, you can control it by using the _integrate_forces() callback. In this method, you can add forces, apply impulses, or set the velocity in order to achieve any movement you desire.

The “look at” method

As described above, using the Spatial node’s look_at() method can’t be used each frame to follow a target. Here is a custom look_at() method that will work reliably with rigid bodies:

GDScript

C#

  1. extends RigidBody
  2. func look_follow(state, current_transform, target_position):
  3. var up_dir = Vector3(0, 1, 0)
  4. var cur_dir = current_transform.basis.xform(Vector3(0, 0, 1))
  5. var target_dir = (target_position - current_transform.origin).normalized()
  6. var rotation_angle = acos(cur_dir.x) - acos(target_dir.x)
  7. state.set_angular_velocity(up_dir * (rotation_angle / state.get_step()))
  8. func _integrate_forces(state):
  9. var target_position = $my_target_spatial_node.get_global_transform().origin
  10. look_follow(state, get_global_transform(), target_position)
  1. class Body : RigidBody
  2. {
  3. private void LookFollow(PhysicsDirectBodyState state, Transform currentTransform, Vector3 targetPosition)
  4. {
  5. var upDir = new Vector3(0, 1, 0);
  6. var curDir = currentTransform.basis.Xform(new Vector3(0, 0, 1));
  7. var targetDir = (targetPosition - currentTransform.origin).Normalized();
  8. var rotationAngle = Mathf.Acos(curDir.x) - Mathf.Acos(targetDir.x);
  9. state.SetAngularVelocity(upDir * (rotationAngle / state.GetStep()));
  10. }
  11. public override void _IntegrateForces(PhysicsDirectBodyState state)
  12. {
  13. var targetPosition = GetNode<Spatial>("my_target_spatial_node").GetGlobalTransform().origin;
  14. LookFollow(state, GetGlobalTransform(), targetPosition);
  15. }
  16. }

This method uses the rigid body’s set_angular_velocity() method to rotate the body. It first calculates the difference between the current and desired angle and then adds the velocity needed to rotate by that amount in one frame’s time.

注解

This script will not work with rigid bodies in character mode because then, the body’s rotation is locked. In that case, you would have to rotate the attached mesh node instead using the standard Spatial methods.
