SkeletonModification2DFABRIK

    A modification that uses FABRIK to manipulate a series of Bone2D nodes to reach a target.

    class SkeletonModification2DFABRIK

    This SkeletonModification2D uses an algorithm called Forward And Backward Reaching Inverse Kinematics, or FABRIK, to rotate a bone chain so that it reaches a target.

    FABRIK works by knowing the positions and lengths of a series of bones, typically called a “bone chain”. It first starts by running a forward pass, which places the final bone at the target’s position. Then all other bones are moved towards the tip bone, so they stay at the defined bone length away. Then a backwards pass is performed, where the root/first bone in the FABRIK chain is placed back at the origin. Then all other bones are moved so they stay at the defined bone length away. This positions the bone chain so that it reaches the target when possible, but all of the bones stay the correct length away from each other.

    Because of how FABRIK works, it often gives more natural results than those seen in SkeletonModification2DCCDIK. FABRIK also supports angle constraints, which are fully taken into account when solving.

    To help control how the FABRIK joints move, a magnet vector can be passed, which can nudge the bones in a certain direction prior to solving, giving a level of control over the final result.

    Citizens in SwiftGodot

    Conformances

    • protocol CustomStringConvertible

      A type with a customized textual representation.

    • protocol Equatable

      A type that can be compared for value equality.

    • protocol Hashable

      A type that can be hashed into a Hasher to produce an integer hash value.

    • protocol Identifiable<ID>

      A class of types whose instances hold the value of an entity with stable identity.

    • protocol VariantRepresentable

      Types that conform to VariantRepresentable can be stored directly in Variant with no conversion. These include all of the Variant types from Godot (for example GString, Rect, Plane), Godot objects (those that subclass SwiftGodot.Object) as well as the built-in Swift types UInt8, Int64 and Double.

    • protocol VariantStorable

      Types that conform to VariantStorable can be stored in a Variant and can be extracted back out of a Variant.
