Weight or force which affect on actor.
  • Hi! For instance we have some actor and other actors which affect on the first actor. Can we get sum of forces or weight which affect on that actor?

  • Do you mean, the sum of all forces on a particular actor, due to contacts, joints, and external forces applied? I don't think that is possible, but I'll have another look.
  • It's very important for my task to know information about forces which applies to particular actor. Frankly speaking i need to know weight of particular actor but i think that through forces i can calculate weight too.
  • Well, the weight is easy, just multiply the mass of your actor by the acceleration due to gravity that you've set on the scene. You can look at contact impulses through a contact callback, but you can't see joint constraint impulses.

  • That's not so easy. The problem is object can be moved by different devices and i need to know weight on that devices.
