Detailed Description

The abstract base class for all things that can collide with other things in the world, and all the things they can collide with (except geometry).

This class and its derivatives really work very similarly to the way BoundingVolume and all of its derivatives work. There's a different subclass for each basic shape of solid, and double-dispatch function calls handle the subset of the N*N intersection tests that we care about.

Member Function Documentation

void CollisionSolid::clear_effective_normal ( )
inline

Removes the normal previously set by set_effective_normal().

Definition at line 78 of file collisionSolid.I.

const LVector3 & CollisionSolid::get_effective_normal ( ) const
inline

Returns the normal that was set by set_effective_normal().

It is an error to call this unless has_effective_normal() returns true.

Definition at line 103 of file collisionSolid.I.

References LVector3f::zero().

bool CollisionSolid::get_respect_effective_normal ( ) const
inline

See set_respect_effective_normal().

Definition at line 137 of file collisionSolid.I.

PStatCollector & CollisionSolid::get_test_pcollector ( )
virtual

Returns a PStatCollector that is used to count the number of intersection tests made against a solid of this type in a given frame.

Reimplemented in CollisionPolygon, CollisionFloorMesh, CollisionParabola, CollisionBox, CollisionTube, CollisionInvSphere, CollisionSphere, CollisionPlane, and CollisionGeom.

Definition at line 195 of file collisionSolid.cxx.

PStatCollector & CollisionSolid::get_volume_pcollector ( )
virtual

Returns a PStatCollector that is used to count the number of bounding volume tests made against a solid of this type in a given frame.

Reimplemented in CollisionPolygon, CollisionFloorMesh, CollisionParabola, CollisionBox, CollisionTube, CollisionInvSphere, CollisionSphere, CollisionPlane, and CollisionGeom.

Definition at line 183 of file collisionSolid.cxx.

bool CollisionSolid::has_effective_normal ( ) const
inline

Returns true if a special normal was set by set_effective_normal(), false otherwise.

Definition at line 90 of file collisionSolid.I.

bool CollisionSolid::is_tangible ( ) const
inline

Returns whether the solid is considered 'tangible' or not.

An intangible solid has no effect in a CollisionHandlerPusher (except to throw an event); it's useful for defining 'trigger' planes and spheres, that cause an effect when passed through.

Definition at line 47 of file collisionSolid.I.

Referenced by CollisionHandlerFluidPusher::add_entry(), and CollisionHandlerPhysical::add_entry().

void CollisionSolid::set_bounds ( const BoundingVolume bounding_volume)

Returns the solid's bounding volume.

Definition at line 108 of file collisionSolid.cxx.

void CollisionSolid::set_effective_normal ( const LVector3 effective_normal)
inline

Records a false normal for this CollisionSolid that will be reported by the collision system with all collisions into it, instead of its actual normal.

This is useful as a workaround for the problem of an avatar wanting to stand on a sloping ground; by storing a false normal, the ground appears to be perfectly level, and the avatar does not tend to slide down it.

Definition at line 65 of file collisionSolid.I.

void CollisionSolid::set_respect_effective_normal ( bool  respect_effective_normal)
inline

This is only meaningful for CollisionSolids that will be added to a traverser as colliders.

It is normally true, but if set false, it means that this particular solid does not care about the "effective" normal of other solids it meets, but rather always uses the true normal.

Definition at line 120 of file collisionSolid.I.

void CollisionSolid::set_tangible ( bool  tangible)
inline

Sets the current state of the 'tangible' flag.

Set this true to make the solid tangible, so that a CollisionHandlerPusher will not allow another object to intersect it, or false to make it intangible, so that a CollisionHandlerPusher will ignore it except to throw an event.

Definition at line 27 of file collisionSolid.I.
