DynamicsWorld QML Type

This property defines the default density of dynamic objects, measured in kilograms per cubic unit. This is equal to the weight of a cube with side 1.

The default value is 0.001, corresponding to 1 g/cm³: the density of water. If your unit of measurement is meters, a good value would be 1000. Note that only positive values are allowed.

This property enables continuous collision detection. This will reduce the risk of bodies going through other bodies at high velocities (also known as tunnelling). The default value is false.

This property enables debug drawing of all active shapes in the physics world. The default value is false.

This property defines the gravity vector of the physics world. The default value is (0, -981, 0). Set the value to Qt.vector3d(0, -9.81, 0) if your unit of measurement is meters and you are simulating Earth gravity.

This property defines the maximum simulation timestep in milliseconds. The default value is 33.333 which corresponds to 30 frames per second.

This property defines the minimum simulation timestep in milliseconds. The default value is 16.667 which corresponds to 60 frames per second.

This property starts or stops the physical simulation. The default value is true.

This property defines the viewport of the scene. If unset when the physical simulation is started a View3D will try to be located among the parents of this world. The first and top-most View3D found in any of this world's parents will be used.

This property defines the approximate size of objects in the simulation. This is used to estimate certain length-related tolerances. Objects much smaller or much larger than this size may not behave properly. The default value is 100.

This property defines the typical magnitude of velocities of objects in simulation. This is used to estimate whether a contact should be treated as bouncing or resting based on its impact velocity, and a kinetic energy threshold below which the simulation may put objects to sleep.

For normal physical environments, a good choice is the approximate speed of an object falling under gravity for one second. The default value is 1000.
