PinJoint2D

Inherits: Joint2D < Node2D < CanvasItem < Node < Object

A physics joint that attaches two 2D physics bodies at a single point, allowing them to freely rotate.

Description

A physics joint that attaches two 2D physics bodies at a single point, allowing them to freely rotate. For example, a RigidBody2D can be attached to a StaticBody2D to create a pendulum or a seesaw.

Properties

bool	angular_limit_enabled	false
float	angular_limit_lower	0.0
float	angular_limit_upper	0.0
bool	motor_enabled	false
float	motor_target_velocity	0.0
float	softness	0.0

---

Property Descriptions

bool angular_limit_enabled = false

• void set_angular_limit_enabled ( bool value )

• bool is_angular_limit_enabled ( )

If true, the pin maximum and minimum rotation, defined by angular_limit_lower and angular_limit_upper are applied.

---

float angular_limit_lower = 0.0

• void set_angular_limit_lower ( float value )

• float get_angular_limit_lower ( )

The minimum rotation. Only active if angular_limit_enabled is true.

---

float angular_limit_upper = 0.0

• void set_angular_limit_upper ( float value )

• float get_angular_limit_upper ( )

The maximum rotation. Only active if angular_limit_enabled is true.

---

bool motor_enabled = false

• void set_motor_enabled ( bool value )

• bool is_motor_enabled ( )

When activated, a motor turns the pin.

---

float motor_target_velocity = 0.0

• void set_motor_target_velocity ( float value )

• float get_motor_target_velocity ( )

Target speed for the motor. In radians per second.

---

float softness = 0.0

• void set_softness ( float value )

• float get_softness ( )

The higher this value, the more the bond to the pinned partner can flex.
