Add a torque (world space) (active for one timestep).

virtual void iRigidBody::AdjustTotalMass ( float targetmass ) [pure virtual]

Set the total mass to targetmass, and adjust the properties (center of mass and matrix of inertia).

virtual void iRigidBody::AttachCollider ( iDynamicsSystemCollider * collider ) [pure virtual]

Add a collider to this rigid body.

If you have set the collider transform before then it will be considered as relative to the attached body (but still if you will use colliders "GetTransform ()" it will be in the world coordinates. The collider becomes dynamic (which means that it will follow the rigid body).

virtual bool iRigidBody::AttachColliderBox	(	const csVector3 &	size,

	elasticity	the "bouncyness" of this object, from 0 (no bounce) to 1 (maximum bouncyness)
	softness	how "squishy" this object is, in the range 0...1; small values (range of 0.00001 to 0.01) give reasonably stiff collision contacts, larger values are more "mushy"

		float	radius,
		const csOrthoTransform &	trans,
		float	friction,
		float	density,
		float	elasticity,
		float	softness = `0.01f`
	)			`[pure virtual]`
