    pointB: Vector3,
    radius: number,
    scene: Scene,
): PhysicsShapeCylinder

  radius
- scene: Scene
  scene to attach to
Returns PhysicsShapeCylinder

Properties

_pluginData

_pluginData: any

V2 Physics plugin private data for single shape

Accessors

density

get density(): number
Returns the density of the physics shape.

Returns number
The density of the physics shape.
Inherited from PhysicsShape.density
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:26883
set density(density: number): void
Sets the density of the physics shape.
Parameters
- density: number
  The density of the physics shape.
Returns void
Inherited from PhysicsShape.density
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:26878

filterCollideMask

get filterCollideMask(): number
Returns number
Bitmask of categories that this shape should collide with
Inherited from PhysicsShape.filterCollideMask
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:26863
set filterCollideMask(collideMask: number): void
Sets the collide mask of a shape. This is a bitfield of arbitrary "categories" to which this shape collides with. Given two shapes, the engine will check if the collide mask and membership overlap: shapeA.filterMembershipMask & shapeB.filterCollideMask

If this value is zero (i.e. shapeB only collides with categories which shapeA is not a member of) then the shapes will not collide.

Note, the engine will also perform the same test with shapeA and shapeB swapped; the shapes will not collide if either shape has a collideMask which prevents collision with the other shape.
Parameters
- collideMask: number
  Bitmask of categories this shape should collide with
Returns void
Inherited from PhysicsShape.filterCollideMask
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:26858

filterMembershipMask

get filterMembershipMask(): number
Get the membership mask of a shape.

Returns number
Bitmask of categories which this shape is a member of.
Inherited from PhysicsShape.filterMembershipMask
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:26842
set filterMembershipMask(membershipMask: number): void
Set the membership mask of a shape. This is a bitfield of arbitrary "categories" to which the shape is a member. This is used in combination with the collide mask to determine if this shape should collide with another.
Parameters
- membershipMask: number
  Bitfield of categories of this shape.
Returns void
Inherited from PhysicsShape.filterMembershipMask
- Defined in .temp/typedoc/docdirectory/doc.d.ts:26837
