Infinite mass and moment solution
Posted: Thu Sep 27, 2012 3:41 am
Hi guys,
This is just a question. But sometimes I've heard the problem stated as: What happens if two objects of infinite mass collides. And really, from a pure physics point of view, it hasn't to do with static mass, it has to do with relative mass. If both have infinite mass, they might as well both have a mass of 1 each of them. Because it's the same.
I did a really quick fix for this to allow for infinite masses colliding, and it works logically and chipmunk handles it nicely.
Best,
Theis
