Hi,

My gap joint doesnt seem to do anything? I cant see an option to
specify a distance which needs to be maintained?

Also, I didnt see a distance joint being exported to C++?

Regards

i

Mekanimo simulates the spring, gap, and chain connectors by applying external forces.  Since there are no corresponding elements in Box2D, they cannot be translated.  There may be a way to translate springs by using distance joints but gap and chain elements cannot be translated in a similar fashion.

Thanks...does Beam connectors simply cause multiple fixtures per body
so the fixtures remain fixed in relative position?
