advanced physics effects

[Pantyhose-X]

Global physics like realistic minecraft. Physical effects., I'm in Cubyz when the wind blows in the wheat fields that's awesome ,
this should be an option: enabled or disabled

I never used unreal engine, so you have to clarify what physical effects you mean.
Is this just about wind, or are there other effects that you want?

collision
Blast
Flow
Soft Body Dynamics

Just like https://developer.nvidia.com/physx-sdk

Oh, I see. Some of these are pretty expensive effects. let me just go through them:

• collision is already mentioned in Collision Detection #82
• Blast seems to be about realistic destruction of object, which I don't think makes much sense with the given scale of 1 voxel per meter. It's also unclear what do with the debris of a destruction like this.
• Flow - fluid/gas dynamics are definitely out of scope here. The scale of the world is too big to have any realistic fluid/gas behavior. I plan to use a simpler approach with per voxel fluid data: Fluid/Gas System #62
• Soft Body Dynamics - not sure if it would fit the style of the game, but generally it would be kind of cool to have some soft-body entities. But it would require a ton of constraints.
• Wind - would probably be foremost a graphical feature, having arrows be influenced by wind might be interesting though.
