Rust Physics Simulator

How to run:

1. git clone https://github.com/Dannyhvv/rust-physics-sim
2. cd rust-physics-sim
3. cargo run

Switch between tools with tabs on top left

Tools:

• Drag
  • Click and hold left mouse to pull nearest shape towards cursor
• Rect
  • Click and drag to outline a rectangle, release to confirm.
• Circle
  • Click and drag to outline a circle, release to confirm.

Physics bodies usually have the following properties, configurable via the UI:

• Density
  • Greater values make the object "heavier", more resistant to change.
• Restitution
  • Greater values make the object bouncier, conserving more velocity after a collision.
• Static
  • If checked, the object will be unable to move.
• Collide
  • If checked, the object will be able to collide with other bodies.
• Random Colors
  • If checked, the object will recieve a random color from a preset list upon creation, otherwise it will be white. (custom colors planned)

World options:

• Paused
  • If checked, time will not progress. Shapes can still be created.
• Gravity X
  • Determines the gravity on the X axis, negative values pull objects towards the left, positive values pull objects towards the right.
• Gravity Y
  • Determines the gravity on the Y axis, negative values pull objects towards the top, positive values pull objects towards the bottom.
• Iterations
  • How many physics checks to do per frame, higher leads to more accurate collisions with worse performance, while lower has better performance with less accurate collisions.
