Question by BenDurch · Dec 09, 2015 at 03:51 AM · physics2dfrictionphysicmaterialphysics material

i can not get a single physical material to work.

so i'm making a game where a 2d character can jump between planets which are at the moment Circle Collider 2Ds. i want to give different planets physical materials, but nothing i do works. i'm simply trying to rotate the planet causing all the objects including the player to move with the rotation. i have applied a physical 2d material to the planet with bouncyness at 0 and friction at 1000 and it did nothing. could anyone offer me a solution to this issue?

Physics Materials are used when objects contact each other. Bounciness controls how they rebound and Friction is the surface friction (both typically in the range of 0 to 1; don't use 1000).

If you want the equivalent of air-friction then use Rigidbody2D.drag and Rigidbody2D.angularDrag.

i tried that and it isn't working. i was curious if the force attracting the player to the selected planet is to great causing the physical material to have no effect, but it wasn't the case.

i am not entirely sure what is causing this problem because it won't work for anything. i want the planet to grip things on it's surface while it spins. in this picture the planet has a friction physical material and is spinning, but the player is stationary.
