<brief_description>
- Rigid body 2D node.
+ Physics Body whose position is determined through physics simulation in 2D space.
</brief_description>
<description>
- Rigid body 2D node. This node is used for placing rigid bodies in the scene. It can contain a number of shapes, and also shift state between regular Rigid body, Kinematic, Character or Static.
- Character mode forbids the node from being rotated. This node can have a custom force integrator function, for writing complex physics motion behavior per node.
- As a warning, don't change this node position every frame or very often. Sporadic changes work fine, but physics runs at a different granularity (fixed hz) than usual rendering (process callback) and maybe even in a separate thread, so changing this from a process loop will yield strange behavior.
+ This is the node that implements full 2D physics. This means that you do not control a RigidBody2D directly. Instead you can apply forces to it (gravity, impulses, etc.), and the physics simulation will calculate the resulting movement, collision, bouncing, rotating, etc.
+ This node can use custom force integration, for writing complex physics motion behavior per node.
+ This node can shift state between regular Rigid body, Kinematic, Character or Static.
+ Character mode forbids this node from being rotated.

+ If [code]true[/code] continuous collision detection is used. Default value: [code]false[/code]
+ Continuous collision detection tries to predict where a moving body will collide, instead of moving it and correcting its movement if it collided. Continuous collision detection is more precise, and misses less impacts by small, fast-moving objects. Not using continuous collision detection is faster to compute, but can miss small, fast-moving objects.
