SettingDescription
Physics LibraryAdd the Ammo asm.js and WebAssembly modules to this project from the PlayCanvas Store.
GravityGravity is the acceleration applied every frame to all rigid bodies in your scene. By default, it is set to -9.8 meters per second per second, which essentially approximates Earth's gravity. If you are making a game in space, you might want to set this to 0, 0, 0 (zero g).

Notes

  • Without Ammo.js imported, physics features will not function.
  • Gravity can be adjusted to simulate different worlds.
