Box2D question... - noob007 - 06-26-2011
Is Buildism using the native Box2D library through something like the JNI, or is it using a Box2D library that's been rewritten and compiled in Java?

So it's a complete rewrite in Java, I see.
Which I think is actually a really bad idea, since Java is quite slow for arithmetic operations.

Not necessarily.

Erm, usually when you make such a statement you also provide stuff to support it...

What does that have to do with anything? And do you mean the Java bytecode files, or the Java VM?

Oh and box2D is amazing
RE: Box2D question... - noob007 - 06-26-2011
Box2D *is* amazing, lol.
But it would be even more amazing if it did soft-body physics too. xD
