World:newCollider

Edit

Adds a new Collider to the World.

collider = World:newCollider(x, y, z)
collider = World:newCollider(position)

Notes

This function creates a collider without any shapes attached to it, which means it won't collide with anything. To add a shape to the collider, use Collider:addShape, or use one of the following functions to create the collider:

• World:newBoxCollider
• World:newCapsuleCollider
• World:newCylinderCollider
• World:newSphereCollider

Example

Create a new world, add a collider to it, and update it, printing out the collider's position as it falls.

function lovr.load()
  world = lovr.physics.newWorld()
  box = world:newBoxCollider()
end

function lovr.update(dt)
  world:update(dt)
  print(box:getPosition())
end
