A server interface for low-level 3D physics access. PhysicsServer3D is the server responsible for all 3D physics. It can directly create and manipulate all physics objects: - A [i]space[/i] is a self-contained world for a physics simulation. It contains bodies, areas, and joints. Its state can be queried for collision and intersection information, and several parameters of the simulation can be modified. - A [i]shape[/i] is a geometric shape such as a sphere, a box, a cylinder, or a polygon. It can be used for collision detection by adding it to a body/area, possibly with an extra transformation relative to the body/area's origin. Bodies/areas can have multiple (transformed) shapes added to them, and a single shape can be added to bodies/areas multiple times with different local transformations. - A [i]body[/i] is a physical object which can be in static, kinematic, or rigid mode. Its state (such as position and velocity) can be queried and updated. A force integration callback can be set to customize the body's physics. - An [i]area[/i] is a region in space which can be used to detect bodies and areas entering and exiting it. A body monitoring callback can be set to report entering/exiting body shapes, and similarly an area monitoring callback can be set. Gravity and damping can be overridden within the area by setting area parameters. - A [i]joint[/i] is a constraint, either between two bodies or on one body relative to a point. Parameters such as the joint bias and the rest length of a spring joint can be adjusted. Physics objects in [PhysicsServer3D] may be created and manipulated independently; they do not have to be tied to nodes in the scene tree. [b]Note:[/b] All the 3D physics nodes use the physics server internally. Adding a physics node to the scene tree will cause a corresponding physics object to be created in the physics server. A rigid body node registers a callback that updates the node's transform with the transform of the respective body object in the physics server (every physics update). An area node registers a callback to inform the area node about overlaps with the respective area object in the physics server. The raycast node queries the direct state of the relevant space in the physics server. Adds a shape to the area, along with a transform matrix. Shapes are usually referenced by their index, so you should track which shape has a given index. Assigns the area to a descendant of [Object], so it can exist in the node tree.

By counting (or keeping track of) the shapes that enter and exit, it can be determined if an area (with all its shapes) is entering for the first time or exiting for the last time. Assigns the area to one or many physics layers. Sets which physics layers the area will monitor. Sets the area's body monitor callback. This callback will be called when any other (shape of a) body enters or exits (a shape of) the given area, and must take the following five parameters: 1. an integer [code]status[/code]: either [constant AREA_BODY_ADDED] or [constant AREA_BODY_REMOVED] depending on whether the other body shape entered or exited the area, 2. an [RID] [code]body_rid[/code]: the [RID] of the body that entered or exited the area, 3. an integer [code]instance_id[/code]: the [code]ObjectID[/code] attached to the body, 4. an integer [code]body_shape_idx[/code]: the index of the shape of the body that entered or exited the area, 5. an integer [code]self_shape_idx[/code]: the index of the shape of the area where the body entered or exited.
