PhysicsJointIsCollideConnected ( joint )

Parameters

joint - a current physics joint handle

Description

Returns this joint's configured connected-collision flag.

True grants eligibility only: other joints, shape masks, groups and body types can still prevent collision. Newly created joints default to False.

Invalid, stale or wrong-kind handles raise a runtime error.

Requires Extended mode.
