HingeConstraint | Babylon.js API documentation

Class HingeConstraint

Creates a HingeConstraint, which is a type of PhysicsConstraint.

This code is useful for creating a HingeConstraint, which is a type of PhysicsConstraint. This constraint is used to simulate a hinge joint between two rigid bodies, allowing them to rotate around a single axis.

Param: pivotA

The first pivot point, in world space.

Param: pivotB

The second pivot point, in world space.

Param: scene

The scene the constraint is used in.

Returns

The new HingeConstraint.

Accessors

isCollisionsEnabled

get isCollisionsEnabled(): boolean
Gets whether collisions are enabled for this physics object.

Returns boolean
true if collisions are enabled, false otherwise.
Inherited from PhysicsConstraint.isCollisionsEnabled
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:27414
set isCollisionsEnabled(isEnabled: boolean): void
Enables or disables collisions for the physics engine.
Parameters
- isEnabled: boolean
  A boolean value indicating whether collisions should be enabled or disabled.
Returns void
Inherited from PhysicsConstraint.isCollisionsEnabled
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:27407

isEnabled

get isEnabled(): boolean
Returns boolean
true if constraint is enabled
Inherited from PhysicsConstraint.isEnabled
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:27400
set isEnabled(isEnabled: boolean): void
Enable/disable the constraint
Parameters
- isEnabled: boolean
  value for the constraint
Returns void
Inherited from PhysicsConstraint.isEnabled
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:27395

options

get options(): PhysicsConstraintParameters
Retrieves the options of the physics constraint.

Returns PhysicsConstraintParameters
The physics constraint parameters.
Inherited from PhysicsConstraint.options
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:27390

type

get type(): PhysicsConstraintType
Gets the type of the constraint.

Returns PhysicsConstraintType
The type of the constraint.
Inherited from PhysicsConstraint.type
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:27383

Methods

dispose

dispose(): void
Disposes the constraint from the physics engine.

This method is useful for cleaning up the physics engine when a body is no longer needed. Disposing the body will free up resources and prevent memory leaks.

Returns void
Inherited from PhysicsConstraint.dispose
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:27425

getBodiesUsingConstraint

getBodiesUsingConstraint(): ConstrainedBodyPair[]
Gets all bodies that are using this constraint

Returns ConstrainedBodyPair[]
Inherited from PhysicsConstraint.getBodiesUsingConstraint
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:27419
