Hi, is there a way to check if an object has stppped moving.
I am playing around with the simplepool project and the thing I want to do is that when I have shot a ball and it stops I want to reset the x and y values to the original.

Hey Maholm,
I think you can accomplish this by adding a Runtime Listener to the object in motion. At each game cycle increment, it will check a certain function, in this case some function you create like “CheckVelocity”. Within that function, use “body:getLinearVelocity()” which will return an X and Y value for velocity. If they are both sufficiently low (near 0, but not necessarily at 0), that would indicate the object has stopped moving.

If anybody else has a solution, please post! I’m sure this issue/need will come up in one of my games eventually…
