I would like to see the following Box2D commands (from the DBP plug-in) implemented in a future release of AGK.

B2SetBodyIsSleepingAllowed
B2GetBodyIsAwake
B2GetBodyWorldCenterX (COM with respect to the world)
B2GetBodyWorldCenterY (COM with respect to the world)
B2GetBodyInertia (Rotational Inertia with respect to the COM)
B2SetDistanceJointDampingRatio
B2SetDistanceJointFrequency
B2SetMouseJointDampingRatio
B2SetMouseJointFrequency
B2SetMouseJointMaxForce

I'm still comparing the current commands in agk to those in Box2D, so I may add a few more commands to this list in the next day or so.

We're already compiling a list of extra commands for the next post-bug fix build. Some key commands we've discovered are missing, and some nice to have's that we're sure will improve AppGameKit without bloating it.

I drink tea, and in my spare time I write software.

Nobody likes restrictions.

I would like to have access to the generated vertices and the center of mass of the collision mesh.
We can set the center of mass and the shape vertices but we cant get infos about it.
We have SetSpritePhysicsCOM( iSpriteIndex, x, y ) but not GetSpritePhysicsCOMX( iSpriteIndex )/GetSpritePhysicsCOMY( iSpriteIndex )
We have SetSpriteShapePolygon( iSpriteIndex, numPoints, index, x, y ) but I would like to iterate through the shape's vertexindex and get info about the position: GetSpriteShapePolygonX( iSpriteIndex, index )/GetSpriteShapePolygonY( iSpriteIndex, index )

These are not in the Box2D command set, but I'd like to see some liquid based commands for buoyancy added.

for Gawd's sake man, bloat it already!!!

Seriously though, I think AGK's Box2D really should have 100% Box2D functionality but if I can only have one thing then it would defiantly be buoyancy.
I love my Altair 8800 Replica.
