rigid_body_creation_and_insertion

A rigid-body is created by adding the RigidBody component to an entity. Other components like Transform, Velocity, Ccd, etc. can be added for further customization of the rigid-body.

info

The following example shows several initialization of components to customize rigid-body being built. The input values are just random so using this example as-is will not lead to a useful result.

Example 2D

use bevy::prelude::*;
use bevy_rapier2d::prelude::*;

commands
    .spawn(RigidBody::Dynamic)
    .insert(TransformBundle::from(Transform::from_xyz(0.0, 5.0, 0.0)))
    .insert(Velocity {
        linvel: Vec2::new(1.0, 2.0),
        angvel: 0.2,
    })
    .insert(GravityScale(0.5))
    .insert(Sleeping::disabled())
    .insert(Ccd::enabled());

Example 3D

use bevy::prelude::*;
use bevy_rapier3d::prelude::*;

commands
    .spawn(RigidBody::Dynamic)
    .insert(TransformBundle::from(Transform::from_xyz(0.0, 0.0, 0.0)))
    .insert(Velocity {
        linvel: Vec3::new(0.0, 2.0, 0.0),
        angvel: Vec3::new(0.2, 0.0, 0.0),
    })
    .insert(GravityScale(0.5))
    .insert(Sleeping::disabled())
    .insert(Ccd::enabled());

info

Typically, the inertia and center of mass are automatically set to the inertia and center of mass resulting from the shapes of the colliders attached to the rigid-body. But they can also be set manually.
