getAngularVelocity

getAngularVelocity(local)

Returns the angular velocity of the object center using either the World axis or the Game Object axis.

local:

Type: Bool

True = 1

Game Object axis

False = 0

World axis

Return Type:

List [ x, y ,z]

x = float (angular velocity around x-axis)
y = float (angular velocity around y-axis)
z = float (angular velocity around z-axis)

Sample Code

# get the controller

controller = GameLogic.getCurrentController()

# get the game object controller attached to

obj = controller.owner

# get angular velocity around game object axis

angVel = obj.getAngularVelocity(True)

Game developers can use the game engine to create casual video games, first and third person shooters, role playing games, racing simulations and more. The game engine can be used to make both 2D games and 3D games. Beginning game developers will only need basic knowledge of game design and programming to create rich and complex game models with photo realistic textures to add detail to the graphics of the video game. Today's games need more than good looking low polygon game models. Use normal maps and photo realistic textures to create high quality game models.
