Creating a rope for soft body simulation:

Create a rope entity with mesh and transform for soft body simulation.

Create a rope entity with mesh and transform for soft body simulationCreates a 1D chain of vertices along the -Y axis, suitable for soft body rope simulation. After creation, add a SoftBody component to enable physics:

Parameters
coreEngine core reference
infoParameters for creating the rope (segmentCount, segmentLength, position, rotation, scale)
Returns
Engine::Entity The created entity with mesh and transform
auto rope = Object::Helper::CreateRope(core, { .segmentCount = 20, .segmentLength = 0.1f, .position = glm::vec3(0, 5,
0) }); auto& soft = rope.AddComponent<Physics::Component::SoftBody>(core, SoftBodySettings::Rope(0.9f));
soft.PinVertex(0); // Pin top of rope
Engine::Entity::AddComponent
decltype(auto) AddComponent(TComponent &&component)
Add a component to an entity.
