Remarks

This is the main Physics Control Component class which manages Controls and Body Modifiers associated with one or more static or skeletal meshes. You can add this as a component to an actor containing a mesh and then use it to create, configure and destroy Controls/Body Modifiers:

Controls are used to control one physics body relative to another (or the world). These controls are done through physical spring/damper drives.

Body Modifiers are used to update the most important physical properties of physics bodies such as whether they are simulated vs kinematic, or whether they experience gravity.

Note that Controls and Body Modifiers are given names (which are predictable). These names can then be stored (perhaps in arrays) to make it easy to quickly change multiple Controls/Body Modifiers.

Variables

Public variable UProperty Category, EditAnywhere BlueprintReadWrite int32 MaxNumControlsOrModifiersPerName Upper limit on the number of controls or modifiers that will be created using the same name (which will get a numerical postfix).
Public variable UProperty Category, EditAnywhere BlueprintReadWrite float TeleportDistanceThreshold If the component moves by more than this distance then it is treated as a teleport, which prevents velocities being used for a frame.
