Capsule

Class representing a capsule in 3D space. A capsule is essentially a cylinder with hemispherical caps at both ends. It can be thought of as a swept sphere, where a sphere is moved along a line segment. Capsules are often used as bounding volumes (next to AABBs and bounding spheres).

Methods

Capsule(const Vector3& start, const Vector3& end, f32 radius)

Constructor to create new capsule

start	start vector	Vector3(0,0,0)
end	end vector	Vector3(0,1,0)
radius	capsule's radius	1.0f

Capsule& set(const Vector3& start, const Vector3& end, f32 radius)

Sets the capsule components to the given values

start	start vector
end	end vector
radius	capsule's radius

Capsule clone() const

Returns a new capsule with copied values from this instance

Capsule& copy(const Capsule& capsule)

Copies the values of the given capsule to this instance

capsule

capsule to copy from

Vector3& getCenter(Vector3& target) const

Returns the center point of this capsule

target

target vector that is used to store the method's result

Capsule& translate(const Vector3& v)

Adds the given offset to this capsule, effectively moving it in 3D space

v

offset that should be used to translate the capsule

bool intersectsBox(const Box3& box) const

Returns true if the given bounding box intersects with this capsule

box

bounding box to test

bool equals(const Capsule& capsule) const

Returns true if this capsule is equal with the given one

capsule

capsule to compare with this one

bool operator==(const Capsule& capsule) const

Checks if this capsule equals another

capsule

capsule to compare with

bool operator!=(const Capsule& capsule) const

Checks if this capsule does not equal another

capsule

capsule to compare with
