Detailed Description

A chain shape is a free form sequence of line segments. The chain has one-sided collision, with the surface normal pointing to the right of the edge. This provides a counter-clockwise winding like the polygon shape. Connectivity information is used to create smooth collisions.

Warning
the chain will not collide properly if there are self-intersections.

◆ ComputeAABB()

void b2ChainShape::ComputeAABB ( b2AABB aabb,
const b2Transform transform,
int32  childIndex 
) const
overridevirtual
See also
b2Shape::ComputeAABB

Implements b2Shape.

◆ ComputeMass()

void b2ChainShape::ComputeMass ( b2MassData massData,
float  density 
) const
overridevirtual

Chains have zero mass.

Implements b2Shape.

◆ CreateChain()

void b2ChainShape::CreateChain ( const b2Vec2 vertices,
int32  count,
const b2Vec2 prevVertex,
const b2Vec2 nextVertex 
)

Create a chain with ghost vertices to connect multiple chains together.

Parameters
verticesan array of vertices, these are copied
countthe vertex count
prevVertexprevious vertex from chain that connects to the start
nextVertexnext vertex from chain that connects to the end

◆ CreateLoop()

void b2ChainShape::CreateLoop ( const b2Vec2 vertices,
int32  count 
)

Create a loop. This automatically adjusts connectivity.

Parameters
verticesan array of vertices, these are copied
countthe vertex count

b2Shape::GetChildCount

Implements b2Shape.

◆ TestPoint()

bool b2ChainShape::TestPoint ( const b2Transform transform,
const b2Vec2 p 
) const
overridevirtual

This always return false.
