Class KinematicCharacterController

java.lang.Object

com.bulletphysics.dynamics.ActionInterface

com.bulletphysics.dynamics.character.KinematicCharacterController

public class KinematicCharacterController
extends ActionInterface

KinematicCharacterController is an object that supports a sliding motion in a world. It uses a GhostObject and convex sweep test to test for upcoming collisions. This is combined with discrete collision detection to recover from penetrations.

Interaction between KinematicCharacterController and dynamic rigid bodies needs to be explicity implemented by the user.

Constructor Detail

KinematicCharacterController

public KinematicCharacterController(PairCachingGhostObject ghostObject,
                            ConvexShape convexShape,
                            float stepHeight)

KinematicCharacterController

public KinematicCharacterController(PairCachingGhostObject ghostObject,
                            ConvexShape convexShape,
                            float stepHeight,
                            int upAxis)

Method Detail

updateAction

public void updateAction(CollisionWorld collisionWorld,
                float deltaTime)

Specified by:

updateAction in class ActionInterface

debugDraw

public void debugDraw(IDebugDraw debugDrawer)

Specified by:

debugDraw in class ActionInterface

setUpAxis

public void setUpAxis(int axis)

setWalkDirection

public void setWalkDirection(Vector3f walkDirection)

This should probably be called setPositionIncrementPerSimulatorStep. This is neither a direction nor a velocity, but the amount to increment the position each simulation iteration, regardless of dt.

This call will reset any velocity set by setVelocityForTimeInterval(javax.vecmath.Vector3f, float).

setVelocityForTimeInterval

public void setVelocityForTimeInterval(Vector3f velocity,
                              float timeInterval)

Caller provides a velocity with which the character should move for the given time period. After the time period, velocity is reset to zero. This call will reset any walk direction set by setWalkDirection(javax.vecmath.Vector3f). Negative time intervals will result in no motion.

public void reset()
