Joint

Inherits: Spatial < Node < Object

Inherited By: ConeTwistJoint, Generic6DOFJoint, HingeJoint, PinJoint, SliderJoint

Base class for all 3D joints.

Description

Joints are used to bind together two physics bodies. They have a solver priority and can define if the bodies of the two attached nodes should be able to collide with each other.

Property Descriptions

• bool collision/exclude_nodes

Default	true
Setter	set_exclude_nodes_from_collision(value)
Getter	get_exclude_nodes_from_collision()

If true, the two bodies of the nodes are not able to collide with each other.

---

• NodePath nodes/node_a

Default	NodePath("")
Setter	set_node_a(value)
Getter	get_node_a()

The node attached to the first side (A) of the joint.

---

• NodePath nodes/node_b

Default	NodePath("")
Setter	set_node_b(value)
Getter	get_node_b()

The node attached to the second side (B) of the joint.

---

• int solver/priority

Default	1
Setter	set_solver_priority(value)
Getter	get_solver_priority()

The priority used to define which solver is executed first for multiple joints. The lower the value, the higher the priority.
