Physics & Swinging - Implementation
by Charles Speer · in Torque X 2D · 12/04/2008 (1:35 pm) · 0 replies
Hey Everyone.
I'm going to start implementing swinging motion in my game while using the TorqueX3D physics engine. Basically, I have a player that needs to 'grapple' to a stationary object and swing from one place to another like a pendulum while being able to stop, start, change direction, change speed, and use momentum when detached. I've done research on the internet to prevent reinventing the wheel, but I would like to see an example using TorqueX 3D physics if I can.
Has anyone already done this and is willing to share the wealth? If not, I'll just make my own, but I figured there was no harm in asking if it saves me hours :).
Example:
Bionic Commando - Rearmed
