Constructor Details

GravityForce

public GravityForce(IEntity forceEntity,
 float strength,
 Direction direction)

Instantiates a new GravityForce.

Parameters:

forceEntity - The entity on which the gravitational force is applied.

strength - The strength of the gravitational force.

direction - The direction of the gravitational force.

GravityForce

public GravityForce(IEntity forceEntity,
 float strength,
 float angle)

Instantiates a new GravityForce.

Parameters:

forceEntity - The entity on which the gravitational force is applied.

strength - The strength of the gravitational force.

angle - The angle at which the gravitational force is applied.

Method Details

getForceEntity

public IEntity getForceEntity()

Gets the entity on which the gravitational force is applied.

Returns:

The force entity.

getLocation

public Point2D getLocation()

Calculates and returns the location where the gravitational force is applied. This location is calculated by projecting the force onto a point based on the entity's center, angle, and strength.

Overrides:

getLocation in class Force

Returns:

The location where the gravitational force is applied.
