rigid_body_damping

Damping lets you slow down a rigid-body automatically. This can be used to achieve a wide variety of effects like fake air friction. Each rigid-body is given a linear damping coefficient (affecting its linear velocity) and an angular damping coefficient (affecting its angular velocity). Larger values of the damping coefficients lead to a stronger slow-downs. Their default values are 0.0 (no damping at all).

This damping coefficients can be set when the rigid-body is created or after its creation:

# Set the damping coefficients when the rigid-body is created.
rigid_body = rp.RigidBody.dynamic().linear_damping(0.5).angular_damping(1.0).build()

# Set the damping coefficients after the rigid-body creation.
rigid_body = world.rigid_bodies[rigid_body_handle]
rigid_body.linear_damping = 0.5
rigid_body.angular_damping = 1.0
assert rigid_body.linear_damping == 0.5
assert rigid_body.angular_damping == 1.0
