# Antikyth

Bullet Physics 3 server for node.js. Designed for multiple realtime clients.

Runs at native C++ speed in a dedicated process, so this is probably the fastest physics you can get for `node`. This is _not_ an emscripten build, and does _not_ run in the browser. If that's what you want, you're probably looking for [ammo.js](https://github.com/kripken/ammo.js/).

This also does not include any rendering, only the backend number crunching. If you want rendering, you probably want to plug this into a [THREE.js](https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js/) frontend.

## Install

```

npm install antikyth

```

## Example

```js

const Antikyth = require('.');

// initialize new physics engine

const engine = new Antikyth();

// initialize new world

const world = new Antikyth.World();

engine.add(world);

// add some bodies

const floor = new Antikyth.Plane({

  position: [0, 0, 0],

  dimensions: [0, 1, 0],

  mass: 0,

});

world.add(floor);

const box = new Antikyth.Box({

  position: [0, 2, 0],

  rotation: [Math.PI / 8, 0, 0, 1],

  dimensions: [1, 1, 1],

  mass: 1,

});

world.add(box);

// request engine updates at 60 FPS

setInterval(() => {

  engine.requestUpdate();

}, 1000 / 60);

// log updates to console

box.on('update', ({position: [px, py, pz], rotation: [rx, ry, rz, rw]}) => {

  console.log('box', px, py, pz);

});

// start running

engine.start();

```
