personally, I would like GE to have advanced physics that can be turned on, or off.
things like: friction, bouyancy, surface area, and especially rope.
(ropes react to collision differently than, say a brick)
there could be like, a "material" box where you say what your actor is made of. like rubber, wood, steel etc.
In my science lass we've been using a program called "Interactive Physics." If anyones used it, imagine a GE & IE hybrid...

just imagine.




what do YOU think?

that would be cool...

i bet theres someway you
could do that with codes though

its possible to do all those things.
like for buoyancy, just create a filled region, and on collision on the filled region, just do this code:

Code: Select all

yvelocity-=0.5;

or something similar, and for jumping things, change the final velocity multiply to something bigger then 0 on physical respond.

yeah but, right now, if say, a falling box hits the edge of a platform, then it'll either slip and keep falling or stop and "land"

with advanced Physics it could tumble as it fell, turning according to its own motion

wouldn't that be sick to have that WITHOUT coding ?
what are the prospects of this, mak ?

Will be a nice addition

excellent!

YAY!

such 2d physics can be implemented in a number of ways and it really depends on the platform you're writing for. It could be implemented by a user now, if GE supported sprite rotation!

In any case, 2D physics use a fair amount of CPU power and would be unlikely to run at acceptable speeds on a pocketpc system I think?
