This joint allows two bodies to rotate relative to each other at a
specified speed. The relative motion is completely specified, so this
joint has zero degrees of freedom.
It could be used, for example, to attach a rotating propeller to a
moving ship:
bodies
{
hull
{
...
}
propeller
{
type rigidBody;
// Dynamic properties
mass ...;
centreOfMass ...;
inertia ...;
// The propeller is connected to the hull
parent hull;
// The position relative to the hull
transform (1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1) (20 0 0);
// Rotation settings
joint
{
type rotating;
omega (6 0 0);
}
}
}
