A Physics component marks a game object as a “physics object” that should be simulated by physics. Nearly all game objects with Physics will also have a Physics Shape component on the same object or its children. See the Physics reference for details on how physics simulation is structured in Story Machine.

#Behavior

Determines how the object will be simulated by the physics system.

• Static Background - This object does not move but can still collide with other objects. Useful for creating collision shapes that define walls or floors.
• Kinematic - This object will be moved by velocities (set by the Physics action, but will not be affected by forces, collision, or gravity.
• Dynamic - This object will be fully simulated by physics, including gravity and other forces, velocities, collision, etc.

#Lock X

If set, the physics simulation won’t move this object on the X axis.

#Lock Y

If set, the physics simulation won’t move this object on the Y axis.

#Lock Rotation

If set, prevents the physics simulation from changing the rotation of this object.
