love.physics.newPrismaticJoint

Create a prismatic joints between two bodies.

A prismatic joint constrains two bodies to move relatively to each other on a specified axis. It does not allow for relative rotation. Its definition and operation are similar to a revolute joint, but with translation and force substituted for angle and torque.
