WatercraftBallast

Inherits:

Allows off-center weight to be added to a HydroRigidBody

Description

By default, the mass of a HydroRigidBody is centered at the origin of the object. Adding additional weight at various points can improve realism in some cases. The WatercraftBallast node allows you to position a point mass at a specific location. This can be useful for cases such as:

• Creating a keel on a sailboat
• Simulating cargo on a ship
• Shifting the weight of a rider
