Physics: Collision at the wrong place

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

Hello,

I have a weird problem where collision does happen, but at the wrong place. This looks to be caused by reference point.

Please see the video:

Here we have a static ground object and a dynamic wheel object.
[lua]ground:setReferencePoint(display.TopLeftReferencePoint)
physics.addBody(ground, “static”)
physics.addBody(wheel, “dynamic”, {radius=20 * display.contentScaleX})[/lua]

If you remove the first line, collision will happen at the right place.

Shouldn’t collisions be reference point agnostic?
