It is a bit odd right? The positioning of the shapes Yes, and I haven't found anything about it in the documentation. I'm so glad it's not just me, thought I was going mental. Was even harder to google about - tried looking through some box2d stuff as well but with no luck. Not going to lie, wasn't...

Yeah this is exactly what I found - and your assumption of what I was expecting is correct. Thanks for the code example, I fully get what youre suggesting here and it sounds exactly like what I need to do. Will have a dabble later with my code. Cheers! It is a bit odd right? The positioning of the s...

Ive had some issues with rectangle shaped character "sticking" to floors where 2 boxes meet. I read about trying a circle for feet, and this worked well - my character now glides over those bits. I wanted to use a rectangle and circle to create a kind of "capsule" shape. However,...

But if I'm using 64 pixels for my "Meter" of game world, I can't lower that without experiencing changes in all my current code right? If I drop 64 to 4 or 8 I assume movement will get faster or something? why is this so btw ? im drawing the boundingboxes in blue - why are they being picke...

Below is code snippet from the basic physics tutorial: https://love2d.org/wiki/Tutorial:Physics I'm not sure if I've misunderstood how to use this function. But I noticed my bounding box was offset by 10+ pixels - or something ? So I took the basic physics tutorial, and added queryBoundingBox. I use...

Would you recommend I continue using this "chain" approach or should I switch to using the RopeJoint with 2 nodes? I did start with that originally, but wasn't sure of best way of doing "Player grabbing between 2 nodes" or the Rope passing physical objects and needing to "wr...

I have built a rope with many bodies joined together as RopeJoints. It feels a little "floaty" at the moment not sure if I need to mess with the bodies Densities or the Angular Velocity (so they slow down faster?). When my Character grabs one of the bodies and starts swinging, the rope doe...

I've uploaded a video to help explain the odd behaviour im getting.

Edit* Added video example: https://vimeo.com/340194287 https://love2d.org/wiki/love.physics.newRopeJoint Creates a joint between two bodies. Its only function is enforcing a max distance between these bodies. I've created a rope by joining many little circle bodies together. Works quite well. I've g...

Ah, it seems I have to lower the Friction a bit too much - and my Player picks up too much speed now when walking across

I guess I could make it heavier than player and adjust my water buoyancy code relative to that
