Scripting/SPhysics

The SPhysics class allows you to interact with the physics scene. See also Scripting/SRigidbody.

Members

RayCast[]

SPhysicsHit RayCast[] (SVector origin, SVector normal, float distance);

Raycasts from origin along normal, distance meters - and returns the list of collided objects in distance order (closest first)

local trans=Space.Host.ExecutingObject

function Raycast()
    local rays = Space.Physics.RayCast(trans.WorldPosition,trans.Forward,50)
    if(rays~=nil and #rays>0) then
for i=0,#rays - 1 do
    Space.Log(rays[i].Object.Name.." i = "..i)
end
    end
end
trans.OnUpdate(Raycast)

Raycasts from origin in direction normal.

RayCastSingle

SPhysicsHit RayCastSingle (SVector origin, SVector normal, float distance);

Raycasts from origin along normal, distance meters - and returns the list of collided objects in distance order (closest first)

local trans=Space.Host.ExecutingObject

function RaycastSingle()
    local ray=Space.Physics.RayCastSingle(trans.WorldPosition,trans.Forward,50)
    if(ray~=nil and ray.ContainsHit==true) then
Space.Log(ray.Object.Name)     end
end
trans.OnUpdate(RaycastSingle)

Returns single raycast hit from origin in direction normal.

SphereCast[]

SPhysicsHit SphereCast[] (SVector origin, float radius, float distance);

Sweeps from origin in a spherical ray 'radius' wide, and returns the list of collided objects

local trans=Space.Host.ExecutingObject

function SphereRaycast()
    local center=trans.WorldPosition + Vector.New(0.5,0.5,0.5)
    local rays=Space.Physics.SphereCast(center,10,10,trans.Forward)
    if rays~=nil and #rays>0 then
for i=0,#rays - 1 do
    Space.Log(rays[i].Object.Name.." i = "..i)
end
    end
end

trans.OnUpdate(SphereRaycast)

CapsuleCast[]

SPhysicsHit CapsuleCast[] (SVector origin, SVector end, float radius, float distance);

Sweeps a capsule from origin to end, radius wide and returns the list of collided objects.

local trans=Space.Host.ExecutingObject

function CapsuleCast()
    local startp=trans.WorldPosition
    local endp=startp+trans.Up*10
    local rays=Space.Physics.CapsuleCast(startp,endp,1,10,trans.Up)
    if rays~=nil and #rays>0 then
for i=0,#rays - 1 do
    Space.Log(rays[i].Object.Name.." i = "..i)
end
    end
end

trans.OnUpdate(CapsuleCast)

BoxCast[]

SPhysicsHit BoxCast[] (SVector origin, SVector halfExtents, SVector direction, SQuaternion orientation, float distance);

Sweeps a box defined by origin+halfExtents along directiojn, distance meters with a orientation matching orientation - and returns the collisions in distance order.

local trans=Space.Host.ExecutingObject

function BoxCast()
    local center=trans.WorldPosition + Vector.New(0.5,0.5,0.5)
    local endp=local extents=Vector.new(2,2,2)
    local rays=Space.Physics.BoxCast(center,extents,trans.Forward,Quaternion.Identity,2)
    if rays~=nil and #rays>0 then
for i=0,#rays - 1 do
    Space.Log(rays[i].Object.Name.." i = "..i)
end
    end
end

trans.OnUpdate(BoxCast)
