Additional resources: AnchoredJoint2D class.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| attachedRigidbody | The Rigidbody2D attached to the Joint2D. |
| breakAction | The action to take when the joint breaks the breakForce or breakTorque. |
| breakForce | The force that needs to be applied for this joint to break. |
| breakTorque | The torque that needs to be applied for this joint to break. |
| connectedBody | The Rigidbody2D object to which the other end of the joint is attached (ie, the object without the joint component). |
| enableCollision | Should the two rigid bodies connected with this joint collide with each other? |
| reactionForce | Gets the reaction force of the joint. |
| reactionTorque | Gets the reaction torque of the joint. |
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| GetReactionForce | Gets the reaction force of the joint given the specified timeStep. |
| GetReactionTorque | Gets the reaction torque of the joint given the specified timeStep. |
| Message | Description |
|---|---|
| OnJointBreak2D | Called when a Joint2D attached to the same game object breaks. |
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| enabled | Enabled Behaviours are Updated, disabled Behaviours are not. |
| isActiveAndEnabled | Reports whether a GameObject and its associated Behaviour is active and enabled. |
| gameObject | The game object this component is attached to. A component is always attached to a game object. |
| tag | The tag of this game object. |
| transform | The Transform attached to this GameObject. |
| hideFlags | Should the object be hidden, saved with the Scene or modifiable by the user? |
| name | The name of the object. |
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| BroadcastMessage | Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object or any of its children. |
| CompareTag | Checks the GameObject's tag against the defined tag. |
| GetComponent | Gets a reference to a component of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified. |
| GetComponentInChildren | Gets a reference to a component of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, or any child of the GameObject. |
| GetComponentIndex | Gets the index of the component on its parent GameObject. |
| GetComponentInParent | Gets a reference to a component of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, or any parent of the GameObject. |
| GetComponents | Gets references to all components of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified. |
| GetComponentsInChildren | Gets references to all components of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, and any child of the GameObject. |
| GetComponentsInParent | Gets references to all components of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, and any parent of the GameObject. |
| SendMessage | Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object. |
| SendMessageUpwards | Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object and on every ancestor of the behaviour. |
| TryGetComponent | Gets the component of the specified type, if it exists. |
| GetInstanceID | Gets the instance ID of the object. |
| ToString | Returns the name of the object. |
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Destroy | Removes a GameObject, component or asset. |
| DestroyImmediate | Destroys the object obj immediately. You are strongly recommended to use Destroy instead. |
| DontDestroyOnLoad | Do not destroy the target Object when loading a new Scene. |
| FindAnyObjectByType | Retrieves any active loaded object of Type type. |
| FindFirstObjectByType | Retrieves the first active loaded object of Type type. |
| FindObjectOfType | Returns the first active loaded object of Type type. |
| FindObjectsByType | Retrieves a list of all loaded objects of Type type. |
| FindObjectsOfType | Gets a list of all loaded objects of Type type. |
| Instantiate | Clones the object original and returns the clone. |
| InstantiateAsync | Captures a snapshot of the original object (that must be related to some GameObject) and returns the AsyncInstantiateOperation. |
| Operator | Description |
|---|---|
| bool | Does the object exist? |
| operator != | Compares if two objects refer to a different object. |
| operator == | Compares two object references to see if they refer to the same object. |
