DimpleWorld

Represents the world in a dimple

Inherits from:: Object : DimpleThing

This class represents the world within dimple. It holds lists of all objects and their constraints. Properties you can set and get are 'gravity' (x,y,z) and 'collide' (0 or 1).

Any method not known as an instance method of Dimple, is forwarded to this class, so instead of (if 'd' is an instance of Dimple): d.world.clear, you can do d.clear.
