@TheCodingTrain, Huge fan sir thank you for this upload! I know you're incredibly busy these days but with all due respect, I feel that you should have done this from scratch like you've done with the quadtree tutorial, 2d physics, the boids tutorial, and countless others instead of using an external library!

This is great. Do you think it is possible to integrate angles instead of springs between points to make it? Like a spring angle or something?

This is the Coding Challenge video with the highest quality so far: well scripted narrative, lots of tips and logical arguments, an easy to follow and well organized code. Also, the part about how to set up the html and the imports is very appropriate. The video edition also superb. This goes to show your experience making these videos, and also dedicating so much time to the book possibly has an impact on your story-telling style, for the better.

I just started learning coding. After finding your content it is like a breath of fresh air! You make it seem so fun! The ability to do anything with a computer is really cool and powerful. Thanks for your videos.

Thank you, Daniel, your videos always make me happy!

When I watch your videos, I feel you talk to me, not just saying something, but actually talking to me, like I'm a child. But not at all in the negative sense. Your instructions are clear, friendly and unassuming. I hope you either have kids or will some day because I'm sure they'll turn out as marvelously curious little beings. Little bit of a weird post, I know, but this is just how I like to express my gratitude.

This is amazing! this came in clutch when I've been researching simple way to create softbody physics. Thank you for this!

So good to see you back and with another interesting challenge.

Super clear explanations. I learn something new every video watched!

Daniel really is a great educator and entertainer. Thank you Sir for your videos and especially The Nature of Code where I am currently enjoying the chapter about fractals.

Awesome , Mind Blowing 😍

I receive every video of the Coding Train as it was a Christmas gift and I was 5 years old ! I'm so happy and excited !

OMG you're writing a new version of the nature of code :D I have the original and its my favourite book by a mile.

I have always loved your videos! I am a novice game programmer in C# and Unity, it seems like a lot of these tools in Javascript could be expanded to make games with complex physics and graphics in the browser!

Génial !!!

it sure would be fun to write the physics engine on your own. I just spent about an hour or so making a quick engine with a system for springs and force fields (a force applied to specified particles based on the particle's conditions like location, hence "field")

This train sure has come a long way since departure.

Can't wait for Nature of Code!

I need to catch up on the Coding Challenges.

pretty cool that you're doing a rewrite of NoC read it last year and played around with Processing niftiest sketch I did was an ant pheromone trail behaviour simulation, reminiscent of SimAnt surface view

I'd love to see the making of the final character!

Are you going to do rigid body physics next? Maybe throw a squishy sphere at a brick wall at varying speeds and animate it bouncing off and breaking through.

more videos , fun watching. :)

Hi, Loved the video! Would you be able to do a video with collision detection between 2 shapes consisting of a set of points and springs?

I don't have notifications on and it took YT 2 months to suggest this. I have surely watched enough of your videos to get instant feed updates regardless of the notification settings.

Fun fact, soft body simulations actually have a lot of similarities with finite element analysis. In fact, one could use a soft body to simulate a ideal truss structure. When it comes to 2D, or 3D, structures, the main difference becomes that the rigidity of the system is calculated based on the shapes between springs, called elements, and there's some resistance to rotation in the nodes, so a square shape doesn't fall flat. But the idea of modeling a continuous body as a set of discrete points forming a graph, that exhibit some degree of rigidity between them, is very much akin to elastic finite element analysis.

fun fact! the youtuber who explained recently how jelly car worked, he actually made jelly car!

I swear if someone ever hurts this man I'll track them down personally

RETURN OF THE KING

Thanks for helping the programming community own the toxi libs.

Hello Daniel, this was very fun to watch and educational for learning how particles behave based on soft body interactions. Would this principle be applicable for simulating a "verlet cloth" effect on particles forming a 2D rectangular shape?

What about detecting and resolving colisions between two soft body objectS? Sounds like a can of worms ^^'

jesus ! you have risen from the dead ! happy easter : )

but how do i make the springs themselves without toxiclibs :(

when destructuring you can write {VerletPhysics2D: physics} to rename the destruct.

@TheCodingTrain

Oh! I did not know this!!

I'd like to learn more about object destructuring

@deanolium

Жыл бұрын

It's pretty straight forward. Say you have an object `X` with the properties `a`, `b`, and `c`. You can access these by doing: X.a X.b X.c You can also assign these to local variables to make it easier to access: let a = X.a let b = X.b let c = X.c Object destructuring is a thing which lets you do all this in a single line by doing: let {a, b, c} = X This then creates local variables which are set to the properties on `X` that have the same name. You can use this to pick and choose which properties you want: let {a, c} = X // This only picks X.a and X.c You can also rename properties: let {a: newA} = X // We now have a variable called newA that is the same as X.a Finally you can store the remaining, non-picked properties using the rest operator `...` let {a, ...otherProps} = X // We now have the variables `a` and `otherProps` where `otherProps` is an object with properties otherProps.b and otherProps.c It's all basically shorthand but very, very useful.

Is there a circuit emulator playlist on this channel?

can you make video about algorithm and structure sir you should become professor and teaching in highest university like MIT and harvard

The ToxicLib is the next Golan Levin

The JellyCar update is triggering a revisit of softbody physics projects by a bunch of devs :-)

Is it code for slime and truss physics?

Don’t they have dampeners with springs?

The paper he linked to has the basic formulae needed to create this. Basically it's about figuring out what the next position of a point is based on the previous position and acceleration vector applied to it. Then you add in the constraints, but rather than it be fixed, you use the constraints to change the acceleration vector applied to the point based on how far from the 'ideal' length the point is. Add gravity and you get your own physics engine.
