Physic System

[ArushenP2P]

Is it possible to make a Physic System? I'm talking about a more advance script other than the gravity script. Where you can push something and it moves until it slowly stops. :O

I guess... if you want to put the effort into it. Graal gives you the ability to alter the x, y, and z of every object. So I guess if you know your physics it's possible.
You can give the block a velocity when it's pushed and decrease it with friction, which is pretty simple.
Though if you want a global physics engine, that's a lot harder to manager every NPC's mass, velocity, friction, interaction and so on, with other NPC's I guess.

You could have all the objects join a physics class which has all the needed functions. After that, shouldn't be too hard to do. I once thought of making a weapon which processed an objects current co-ords and environmental factors, making the system return the objects complete path.

You are essentially asking if you can apply elementary techniques for mechanics that you learned in high-school to gscript objects. Of course you can.

Unless you are talking about graal having a native support structure for these things, like the Havok engine... In which case the answer is no.

Unless you want to have polygons floating around...

YES
i've already done it and it RULES that you want to do it too!

Just stick to your real life physics, everything falls into place.
