Physics Tracing Code Examples
Physics Tracing Code Examples Raycast and shape trace examples using — the builder pattern for physics queries. TraceResult Properties Builder Pattern Methods
Scene Tracing: Raycasts, Sphere Traces, and Box Traces
Scenes can be traced against using with a builder pattern. At minimum, traces need a shape, start, and end. You can filter by tags or use your project's collisi…
Tracing - s&box Physics Documentation
Tracing Tracing (raycasting) is the primary way to query the physics world in s&box. It allows you to cast rays or shapes through the scene to find collisions w…
Tracing: Scene Traces with Ray, Sphere, and Box Shapes
Scenes can be traced against using with a builder pattern. At minimum, traces need a shape, start, and end position. You can filter by tags or use your project'…
Scene.Trace: Raycasting, Shape Sweeps, Tag Filters, SceneTraceResult Fields, and FindInPhysics
Scene.Trace: Raycasting and Shape Sweeps in s&box is the entry point for all physics traces in s&box. It returns a builder that uses a fluent API. Basic Usage F…
RadiusDamage — explosion area damage with IDamageable, occlusion, and physics force
RadiusDamage Component is a built-in s&box component that applies damage to all objects within a sphere. It integrates with the system and can apply outward phy…
SceneTraceResult: All Fields and Properties from Trace Hits
is returned by and contains all information about a trace hit. Key Fields Common Usage Pattern
DebugOverlay — in-game visualization for spheres, lines, text, and traces
DebugOverlay — In-Editor and In-Game Visualization draws shapes, text, and traces in the world for debugging. All draws are temporary and disappear after a spec…
Custom editor tools — EditorTool, Gizmo drawing, scene tracing, and overlay UI
Custom Editor Tools Editor tools appear in the s&box toolbar and let you build scene editing workflows — painting, placement, custom gizmos. They must live in a…
Decal component — projecting bullet holes, scorch marks, and surface details
Decal Component — Projecting Surface Marks projects a texture onto surfaces in the world. Use it for bullet holes, blood splats, scorch marks, graffiti, and any…
