x and y position of physics objects not updated when in dg

Solar2D Daily Builds and Public Releases
#1

Hello!

I think there is a bug in the physics engine:

When a physics object (display group) consisting of other objects moves,
only the x and y position of the dg get updated but not the position of the objects in the dg.

Reproducible in simulator.

Cheers!

Are the x and y positions of objects in a display group supposed to update? I thought the numbers reported are relative to the parent, and that to get the global coordinates you need to use localToContent(). Or is that the bug you mean, that the numbers returned by localToContent don’t change? I think we need some code to see what you mean. [import]uid: 12108 topic_id: 5202 reply_id: 17299[/import]

Thanks for the reply,

ahhhh yes I see what you mean, you are correct it’s the position relative to the parent and therefore correct. [import]uid: 11772 topic_id: 5202 reply_id: 17458[/import]
