Revision history [back]

When two collision objects collide and overlap then a contact is formed. This contact contains information about how far the two objects overlap. A correcting velocity is applied to the bodies in order to push them apart. The contact_max_correcting_vel can be used to set the maximum allowed correcting velocity.
