Description

Global settings and helpers for 2D physics.

Static Variables

AllLayers Layer mask constant that includes all layers.
angularSleepTolerance A rigid-body cannot sleep if its angular velocity is above this tolerance.
baumgarteScale The scale factor that controls how fast overlaps are resolved.
baumgarteTOIScale The scale factor that controls how fast TOI overlaps are resolved.
DefaultRaycastLayers Layer mask constant that includes all layers participating in raycasts by default.
deleteStopsCallbacks Whether to stop processing collision callbacks if any of the objects involved in the collision are deleted or not.
gravity Acceleration due to gravity.
IgnoreRaycastLayer Layer mask constant for the default layer that ignores raycasts.
linearSleepTolerance A rigid-body cannot sleep if its linear velocity is above this tolerance.
maxAngularCorrection The maximum angular position correction used when solving constraints. This helps to prevent overshoot.
maxLinearCorrection The maximum linear position correction used when solving constraints. This helps to prevent overshoot.
maxRotationSpeed The maximum angular speed of a rigid-body per physics update. Increasing this can cause numerical problems.
maxTranslationSpeed The maximum linear speed of a rigid-body per physics update. Increasing this can cause numerical problems.
positionIterations The number of iterations of the physics solver when considering objects' positions.
raycastsHitTriggers Do raycasts detect Colliders configured as triggers?
timeToSleep The time in seconds that a rigid-body must be still before it will go to sleep.
velocityIterations The number of iterations of the physics solver when considering objects' velocities.
velocityThreshold Any collisions with a relative linear velocity below this threshold will be treated as inelastic.

Static Functions

BoxCast Casts a box against colliders in the scene, returning the first collider to contact with it.
BoxCastAll Casts a box against colliders in the scene, returning all colliders that contact with it.
BoxCastNonAlloc Casts a box into the scene, returning colliders that contact with it into the provided results array.
CircleCast Casts a circle against colliders in the scene, returning the first collider to contact with it.
CircleCastAll Casts a circle against colliders in the scene, returning all colliders that contact with it.
CircleCastNonAlloc Casts a circle into the scene, returning colliders that contact with it into the provided results array.
GetIgnoreCollision Checks whether the collision detection system will ignore all collisions/triggers between collider1 and collider2 or not.
GetIgnoreLayerCollision Should collisions between the specified layers be ignored?
GetRayIntersection Cast a 3D ray against the colliders in the scene returning the first collider along the ray.
GetRayIntersectionAll Cast a 3D ray against the colliders in the scene returning all the colliders along the ray.
GetRayIntersectionNonAlloc Cast a 3D ray against the colliders in the scene returning the colliders along the ray.
