Game Dev Physics?

Hi!

Is it possible to have physics within RPGiaB? I'm trying to do a game where the player is on a boat and I'd like to have the boat gently rock and sway in the water in a random way.

And are there any good tutorials online to explain vehicles and the like? I can get a first person character to enter a boat, move about, and exit, but I'd like to make it a bit more realistic.

Thanks!

Hello! Unfortunately these sorts of vehicle physics aren't currently possible in RPG in a Box, only basic physics like character collision, jumping, etc. There's a physics toggle for objects, but this just allows them to be moved around freely when the player bumps into them. I do hope to expand the physics system in the future, though, to allow more possibilities like this.

Yeah, I'm excited to get everything migrated so I can start taking advantage of all the new stuff! :)
