Box2D's collision detection and resolution system consists of three pieces: an incremental sweep and prune broad phase, a continuous collision detection unit, and a stable linear-time contact solver.

Features Box2D performs constrained rigid body simulation. It can simulate bodies composed of convex polygons, circles, and edge shapes. Bodies are joined with joints and acted upon by forces. The …

Box2D is a 2D rigid body simulation library for games. Programmers can use it in their games to make objects move in realistic ways and make the game world more interactive.

Box2D supports static and dynamic friction, but uses the same parameter for both. Box2D attempts to simulate friction accurately and the friction strength is proportional to the normal force.

Aug 9, 2024 · And it has finally arrived! It has been a long journey and I’ve learned a lot. There is more work to do, but the library is ready to be used for game development. I’d like to thank the Box2D …

Hello! I’m Erin Catto. I work in the video game industry. I also created Box2D, a 2D physics engine for games. I use this blog to give updates on Box2D and write about game physics and programming. …

Box2D is a 2D rigid body simulation library for games. Programmers can use it in their games to make objects move in realistic ways and make the game world more interactive.

The reason is simple: a body with morphing shapes is not a rigid body, but Box2D is a rigid body engine. Many of the algorithms in Box2D are based on the rigid body model and optimized with that in mind.
