Creates a DistanceJoint between two bodies.

This joint constrains the distance between two points on two bodies to be constant. These two points are specified in world coordinates and the two bodies are assumed to be in place when this joint is created. The first anchor point is connected to the first body and the second to the second body, and the points define the length of the distance joint.

Function

Available since LÖVE 0.8.0
This variant is not supported in earlier versions.

Synopsis

joint = love.physics.newDistanceJoint( body1, body2, x1, y1, x2, y2, collideConnected )

Arguments

Body body1
The first body to attach to the joint.
Body body2
The second body to attach to the joint.
number x1
The x position of the first anchor point (world space).
number y1
The y position of the first anchor point (world space).
number x2
The x position of the second anchor point (world space).
number y2
The y position of the second anchor point (world space).
boolean collideConnected (false)
Specifies whether the two bodies should collide with each other.

Returns

DistanceJoint joint
The new distance joint.

Function

Removed in LÖVE 0.8.0
This variant is not supported in that and later versions.
