Static body linear_velocity as surface tangent speed

[briansemrau]

In Godot you can set a linear velocity on static bodies so that they behave like conveyor belts.

This is probably the best way to implement it:

heh, I'm confused about this

[jordo]

linear velocity on static bodies?

[briansemrau]

Yeah, it doesn't move it but it changes collision behavior: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/classes/class_staticbody2d.html#class-staticbody2d-property-constant-linear-velocity

Oh weird, ya, I guess godot doesn't expose any solver interaction, because this is trivial to do in pre-solve.
