Hey, just a few curiosities I had flying around in my head recently, more tests of the Javok physiscs engine than anything else but here's the list:
Balloons
Can you reverse the directions of the physics within an object? This is the only way I can think of doing it because there isn't really support for physically simulated gases as far as I can see. I suppose the barrels in the puzzle from the canal have some kind of property that lets them lift up to the surface but they are underwater. Perhaps you'd have to implement some of the characteristics of water to the real world?
Trolleys
Now I know there's the baggage trolleys in the train station but their wheels don't move properly. I was just wondering if you could actually implement proper wheels. Perhaps making them properly circular would be the biggest stumbling block.
Anyway, if anyone has any other curiosities, feel free to just stick them in this thread!
