Property Descriptions
---------------------

.. _class_PhysicsMaterial_property_absorbent:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **absorbent** = ``false``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_absorbent** **(** :ref:`bool<class_bool>` value **)**
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_absorbent** **(** **)**

If ``true``, subtracts the bounciness from the colliding object's bounciness instead of adding it.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_PhysicsMaterial_property_bounce:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`float<class_float>` **bounce** = ``0.0``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_bounce** **(** :ref:`float<class_float>` value **)**
- :ref:`float<class_float>` **get_bounce** **(** **)**

The body's bounciness. Values range from ``0`` (no bounce) to ``1`` (full bounciness).

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_PhysicsMaterial_property_friction:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`float<class_float>` **friction** = ``1.0``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_friction** **(** :ref:`float<class_float>` value **)**
- :ref:`float<class_float>` **get_friction** **(** **)**

The body's friction. Values range from ``0`` (frictionless) to ``1`` (maximum friction).

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_PhysicsMaterial_property_rough:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **rough** = ``false``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_rough** **(** :ref:`bool<class_bool>` value **)**
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_rough** **(** **)**

If ``true``, the physics engine will use the friction of the object marked as "rough" when two objects collide. If ``false``, the physics engine will use the lowest friction of all colliding objects instead. If ``true`` for both colliding objects, the physics engine will use the highest friction.
