Actions Documentation
ApplyAngularImpulse(number impulse)
This action applied an angular impulse to the object which will cause the object to have a sudden change in angular velocity.
Parameters
- number impulse: The magnitude of the angular impulse.
ApplyForce(Libraries.Compute.Vector2 force, Libraries.Compute.Vector2 point)
This action applies the force that you passed in to a point that you passed in.
Parameters
- Libraries.Compute.Vector2: The force in global coordinates that you want to apply.
- Libraries.Compute.Vector2: The point in the global coordinants that you want the force to be applied to.
ApplyForceToCenter(Libraries.Compute.Vector2 force)
This action applies a force to the center pf mass of the object.
Parameters
- Libraries.Compute.Vector2: The force in global coordinates that you want to apply.
ApplyLinearImpulse(Libraries.Compute.Vector2 impulse, Libraries.Compute.Vector2 point)
This action applies a linear impulse to the object at a specified point, which will lead to a sudden change in linear velocity of the object. This will also lead to a sudden change in angular velocity of the object if the linear impulse is not applied at the center of mass of the object.
Parameters
- Libraries.Compute.Vector2: The impulse vector in global coordinates that you want to apply to the object.
- Libraries.Compute.Vector2: The point in the global coordinants that you want the linear impulse to be applied to.
ApplyTorque(number torque)
This action applies a torque to the center of mass of the object, which means this torque will only affect the angular velocity of the object but not the linear velocity of the object.
Parameters
- number torque: The magnitude of torque to the center of mass of the object.
AssignMass(number mass)
This action changes the mass of this property holder, this will not change the density of this property holder.
Parameters
- number mass: The mass of the object.
CanRotate(boolean flag)
This action sets whether the 2D object attached to this property holder will be able to rotate or not.
Parameters
- boolean flag: True if this object can rotate.
Compare(Libraries.Language.Object object)
This action compares two object hash codes and returns an integer. The result is larger if this hash code is larger than the object passed as a parameter, smaller, or equal. In this case, -1 means smaller, 0 means equal, and 1 means larger. This action was changed in Quorum 7 to return an integer, instead of a CompareResult object, because the previous implementation was causing efficiency issues.
Parameters
- Libraries.Language.Object: The object to compare to.
Return
integer: The Compare result, Smaller, Equal, or Larger.
Example
Object o
Object t
integer result = o:Compare(t) //1 (larger), 0 (equal), or -1 (smaller)
Copy()
This action allows another PhysicsProperties2D object to be assigned by the values stored inside the current PhysicsProperties2D object.
Return
Libraries.Game.Physics.PhysicsProperties2D: another PhysicsProperties2D that has the same value as the current PhysicsProperties2D.
Equals(Libraries.Language.Object object)
This action determines if two objects are equal based on their hash code values.
Parameters
- Libraries.Language.Object: The to be compared.
Return
boolean: True if the hash codes are equal and false if they are not equal.
Example
use Libraries.Language.Object
use Libraries.Language.Types.Text
Object o
Text t
boolean result = o:Equals(t)

- number restitution: The coefficient of restitution.
SetSleepTime(number time)
This action sets how much time that the 2D object attached to this property holder will remain in its current position.
