Joints
Connect your layers using joints. Newton 4 simplifies the process, making it straightforward. There are various joint types like Distance, Pivot, Piston, Spring, Wheel, Blob and Weld new, each serving a specific purpose. Use these joints to connect two or more layers, or get creative by combining different joint types for advanced setups and simulations.
Weld Joint new! : Bonds two bodies together with an option for controlled flexibility, acting on relative rotation.
Distance Joint: Maintains a fixed distance between two points on different layers, adjustable for elasticity.
Piston Joint: Enables relative translation along a specified axis, restricting rotation. Motor-driven for controlled motion.
Pivot Joint: Forces two bodies to share a common anchor point, regulating relative rotation within a defined range.
Spring Joint: Constrains two layers as if connected by a spring, influencing their movement.
Wheel Joint: Combines features of piston and pivot joints, suitable for attaching wheels to vehicles. Includes suspension and a motor.
Blob Joint: Enforces a constant volume (or area in 2D) within a group of layers, utilizing internal soft distance joints.TUTORIAL: Everything you need to know about Weld joints
