Member Variables
----------------

  .. _class_PhysicsBody_collision_layer:

- :ref:`int<class_int>` **collision_layer** - The physics layers this area is in.

Collidable objects can exist in any of 32 different layers. These layers work like a tagging system, and are not visual. A collidable can use these layers to select with which objects it can collide, using the collision_mask property.

A contact is detected if object A is in any of the layers that object B scans, or object B is in any layer scanned by object A.

  .. _class_PhysicsBody_collision_mask:

- :ref:`int<class_int>` **collision_mask** - The physics layers this area can scan for collisions.


Description
-----------

PhysicsBody is an abstract base class for implementing a physics body. All \*Body types inherit from it.

Member Function Description
