Detailed Description

Wrapper over a physics simulation of an entity.

The entity is capable of the physics simulation only when such object exists (see IEntity.GetPhysics). Two main types of physics bodies are static and dynamic. Static bodies are represented by a collision object and dynamic bodies by a rigid body. This means certain methods make sense only when dealing with a dynamic physics body, e.g., Physics.GetVelocity, Physics.ApplyImpulse.

Physics bodies rely on physics geometries to support collisions or casting. In general a physics body can be made out of multiply physics geometries. Certain methods allow to work with a specific physics geometry (via geometry index).
