physics_joint_set_value

This function set a particular joint property to the specified value.

Syntax:

physics_joint_set_value(joint, field, value)


Argument Description
joint The index of the joint that you wish to change
field The constant for the joint property that you wish to change
value The new value for the joint property


Returns: N/A


Description

Certain joint properties can be changed and set even after the creation of the joint, but only on those joints that have a motor, ie - revolute joints and prismatic joints. There are a number of constants that can be used in this function and they can be found here: Physics Joint Constants.


Example:

if physics_joint_get_value(revJoint, phy_joint_max_motor_torque) < 2
   {
   physics_joint_set_value(revJoint, phy_joint_max_motor_torque, 2);
   {

The above code checks to see if the joints maximum motor torque is set to less than 2 and if it is it then sets it to 2.
