Please check out my new blog at mas-bandwidth.com! Introduction Hi, I’m Glenn Fiedler and welcome to Game Physics.
In the previous article we discussed how to use spring-like forces to model basic collision response, joints and motors.
In this article we’re going to discuss how to network a physics simulation.
First Person Shooters First person shooter physics are usually very simple.

In the previous article we discussed how to simulate the motion of rigid bodies in 3D. Now we’re going to discuss how to implement spring physics.
The physics behind springs is simple but extremely versatile and useful. You can use springs to link points together to model rope and string, cloth, and even blobs of jelly.

In the previous article we discussed how to integrate our physics simulation forward at fixed delta time increments, regardless of display framerate.
In this article we are going to simulate motion in three dimensions.
Rigid Bodies We will concentrate on a type of object called a rigid body.

In the previous article we discussed how to integrate the equations of motion using a numerical integrator. Integration sounds complicated, but it’s just a way to advance the your physics simulation forward by some small amount of time called “delta time” (or dt for short).

If you have ever wondered how the physics simulation in a computer game works then this series of articles will explain it for you. I assume you are proficient with C++ and have a basic grasp of physics and mathematics. Nothing else will be required if you pay attention and study the example source code.
