<div class="paragraph">
<p>A ragdoll is a simple &#8220;person&#8221; (dummy) that you build out of cylinder collision shapes. The ragdoll has 11 limbs: 1 for shoulders, 1 for the body, 1 for hips; plus 2 arms and 2 legs that are made up of two limbs each. In your game, you will likely replace the cylinders with your own (better looking) limb models. In this example here we just use simple cylinders.</p>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="limbs"><a class="anchor" href="#limbs"></a>Limbs</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Since you&#8217;re just creating the ragdoll for this example, all the limbs have the same shape, and you can write a simple helper method to create them. The function returns a PhysicsControl with CollisionShape with the width, height, location, and rotation (vertical or horizontal) that you specify. You choose a CapsuleCollisionShape (a cylinder with rounded top and bottom) so the limbs collide smoothly against one another.</p>

<p>If you experience weird behaviour in a ragdoll – such as exploding into pieces and then reassembling – check your collision shapes. Verify you did not position the limbs too close to one another when assembling the ragdoll. You typically see physical nodes being ejected when their collision shapes intersect, which puts physics in an impossible state.</p>

<p>KinematicRagdollControl is an unfinished work in progress.  The intent was to automate the creation of limbs and joints for ragdoll physics.  The idea was to create a control,</p>

<p>A rigid body and a physics joint would be created automatically for each bone in the skeleton, or alternatively just for the bones specified by invoking the addBoneName() method.

<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>DynamicAnimControl is a replacement for KinematicRagdollControl.  The intent is similar, except that a DynamicAnimControl can be simultaneously kinematic for some bones and dynamic for others.  Also, DynamicAnimControl can be configured to work with a wider variety of models than KinematicRagdollControl.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>To simplify the implementation, the ragdoll created by a DynamicAnimControl is composed of "links".  Just as a RigidBodyControl connects a rigid body to a spatial, a link connects a rigid body to one or more bones in the model&#8217;s skeleton.  Just like a RigidBodyControl, a link can be in kinematic mode or dynamic mode.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>And just as the bones in a skeleton are arranged in parent/child hierarchy, so are the links in a DynamicAnimControl ragdoll.  In the ragdoll hierarchy, there is exactly one link that has no parent; it is referred to as the "torso".  Every other link is a "bone link" which has another link as its parent.  Each bone link is connected to its parent by a physics joint.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>As with KinematicRagdollControl, you start by creating a control,</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre class="highlightjs highlight"><code class="language-java hljs" data-lang="java">ragdoll = new DynamicAnimControl();</code></pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>but before adding it to the model, you must configure it by specifying the mass of the torso and also the mass and range of motion for each linked bone:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre class="highlightjs highlight"><code class="language-java hljs" data-lang="java">ragdoll.setMass(DacConfiguration.torsoName, 1f);
ragdoll.link("Waist", 1f, new RangeOfMotion(1f, -0.4f, 0.8f, -0.8f, 0.4f, -0.4f));
...</code></pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You probably don&#8217;t want to link every bone in the model&#8217;s skeleton.  For instance, if the model has articulated fingers, you probably want to link the hand bones but not the individual finger bones.  Unlinked bones will be managed by their nearest linked ancestor, and the torso will manage any bones for which no ancestor is linked.  If you link too many bones, the ragdoll may become inflexible or jittery due to collisions between rigid bodies that don&#8217;t share a physics joint.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Only after the control is configured should you add it to the model and to physics space:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre class="highlightjs highlight"><code class="language-java hljs" data-lang="java">model.addControl(ragdoll);
getPhysicsSpace().add(ragdoll);</code></pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Note that the control must be added to the Spatial with the SkinningControl, which isn&#8217;t necessarily the model&#8217;s root spatial.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>As long as a link is in kinematic mode, its physics objects will mimic the motion of the bones, including skeletal animations.  When it&#8217;s time to simulate a ragdoll, you can invoke</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre class="highlightjs highlight"><code class="language-java hljs" data-lang="java">ragdoll.setRagdollMode();</code></pre>

</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>to put all links into dynamic mode.  Thereafter, physical forces will override any skeletal animation.</p>
