Read-only access to a CharacterBase. (native type: const CharacterBase)

  • Method Details

    • getCosMaxSlopeAngle

      float getCosMaxSlopeAngle()
      Return the maximum slope the character can walk on. The character is unaffected.
      Returns:
      the cosine of the slope angle

    • getGroundBodyId

      int getGroundBodyId()
      Return the body ID of the supporting surface. The character is unaffected.
      Returns:
      an ID value

    • getGroundMaterial

      ConstPhysicsMaterial getGroundMaterial()
      Access the material of the supporting surface. The character is unaffected.
      Returns:
      a new JVM object with the pre-existing native object assigned, or else null

    • getGroundNormal

      Vec3 getGroundNormal()
      Copy the normal direction at the point of contact with the supporting surface. The character is unaffected.
      Returns:
      a new direction vector (in system coordinates)

    • getGroundPosition

      RVec3 getGroundPosition()
      Copy the location of the point of contact with the supporting surface. The character is unaffected.
      Returns:
      a new location vector (in system coordinates)

    • getGroundState

      EGroundState getGroundState()
      Return the relationship between the character and its supporting surface. The character is unaffected.
      Returns:
      an enum value (not null)

    • getGroundSubShapeId

      int getGroundSubShapeId()
      Identify the face on the supporting surface where contact is occurring. The character is unaffected.
      Returns:
      a SubShapeID value

    • getGroundUserData

      long getGroundUserData()
      Return the user data of the supporting surface. The character is unaffected.
      Returns:
      the 64-bit value

    • getGroundVelocity

      Vec3 getGroundVelocity()
      Copy the world-space velocity of the supporting surface. The character is unaffected.
      Returns:
      a new velocity vector (meters per second in system coordinates)

    • getShape

      ConstShape getShape()
      Access the character's shape. The character is unaffected.
      Returns:
      a new immutable JVM object with the pre-existing native object assigned, or null if none

    • getUp

      Vec3 getUp()
      Copy the character's "up" direction. The character is unaffected.
      Returns:
      a new direction vector

    • isSlopeTooSteep

      boolean isSlopeTooSteep(Vec3Arg normal)
      Test whether the specified normal direction is too steep. The character is unaffected.
      Parameters:
      normal - the surface normal to test (not null, unaffected)
      Returns:
      true if too steep, otherwise false

    • isSupported

      boolean isSupported()
      Test whether the character is supported. The character is unaffected.
      Returns:
      true if supported, otherwise false

    • saveState

      void saveState(StateRecorder recorder)
      Save the character's state to the specified recorder. The character is unaffected.
      Parameters:
      recorder - the recorder to save to (not null)
