pXcon_edit6djoint ( ENTITY* entity, var JointMotion[6] );

With this function you can change the Joint Motion of an D6Joint. D6Joints can be created with pXcon_add6djoint.

Parameters:

entity

registered Entity pointer (D6JOINT Actor)

JointMotion[6]

JointMotion[0-2] defines the linear degrees of freedom
(xMotion, yMotion, zMotion)

JointMotion[3-5] Define the angular degrees of freedom
(swing1Motion, swing2Motion, twistMotion)

use these flags as values:
NX_D6JOINT_MOTION_LOCKED
NX_D6JOINT_MOTION_LIMITED
NX_D6JOINT_MOTION_FREE


Returns:

1 if successful, 0 otherwise.

Remarks:

Speed:

Slow

Example:

VECTOR* globalAxis = vector(0,0,-1); // using the z axis
var limits[5];
limits[0] = 1.0; // linearLimit
limits[1] = NxPiF32 / 180.0 * 30.0; // swing1Limit
limits[2] = NxPiF32 / 180.0 * 70.0; // swing2Limit
limits[3] = NxPiF32 / 180.0 * -90.0; // TwistLowLimit
limits[4] = NxPiF32 / 180.0 * 45.0; // TwistHighLimit

// upper joint
pXcon_add6djoint(NULL, box4, box4.x, globalAxis, limits); // when you use NULL you attach the entity (box4) to the world
// lower joint
pXcon_add6djoint(box4, box5, box5.x, globalAxis, limits);

var Motion[6];
Motion[0] = NX_D6JOINT_MOTION_FREE; // This frees box4 from the world (NULL)
Motion[1] = NX_D6JOINT_MOTION_FREE;
Motion[2] = NX_D6JOINT_MOTION_FREE;
Motion[3] = NX_D6JOINT_MOTION_LIMITED; //this limits the angles
Motion[4] = NX_D6JOINT_MOTION_LIMITED;
Motion[5] = NX_D6JOINT_MOTION_LIMITED;

pXcon_edit6djoint(box4,Motion);

Motion[0] = NX_D6JOINT_MOTION_LOCKED; //this locks box5 on box4
Motion[1] = NX_D6JOINT_MOTION_LOCKED;
Motion[2] = NX_D6JOINT_MOTION_LOCKED;

pXcon_edit6djoint(box5,Motion);
