AddBoxShape

From OxeyeWiki

physics:addBoxShape(entityId, shapeDefinition)
Adds a box shape to an entity's body.
Parameter	Expected Type	Description
entityId	An integer	The entity's body identifier, which is returned from the createEntity method.
bodyDefinition	A table	The body definition table, see below.
Returns
Returns true if the shape was added successfully.

Shape Definition Table

The shape definition table holds shape settings. In addition to the box settings, all shapes have the Common Shape Settings too.

Parameter	Expected Type	Description
x	A number	The centrum X coordinate of the box, in relation to the body's X coordinate. Measured in meters. Defaults to 0 (centered on the body).
y	A number	The centrum Y coordinate of the box, in relation to the body's Y coordinate. Measured in meters. Defaults to 0 (centered on the body).
width	A number	The width of the box, measured in meters. Defaults to 1.
height	A number	The height of the box, measured in meters. Defaults to 1.
angle	A number	The rotation of the box, measured in radians. Note that this is the fixed rotaion of the shape. It can't be changed later, since setEntityAngle rotates the whole body and not individual shapes. Defaults to 0.

Example

   local playerShapeDef = {
      x = 0,
      x = 0,
      width = 32 * physResolution,
      height = 64 * physResolution,
      density = 1.5,
      filterGroup = player.body,
      friction = .01,
   }
