<member name="physics/2d/default_angular_damp" type="float" setter="" getter="" default="1.0">
The default angular damp in 2D.
[b]Note:[/b] Good values are in the range [code]0[/code] to [code]1[/code]. At value [code]0[/code] objects will keep moving with the same velocity. Values greater than [code]1[/code] will aim to reduce the velocity to [code]0[/code] in less than a second e.g. a value of [code]2[/code] will aim to reduce the velocity to [code]0[/code] in half a second. A value equal to or greater than the physics frame rate ([member ProjectSettings.physics/common/physics_ticks_per_second], [code]60[/code] by default) will bring the object to a stop in one iteration.
The default rotational motion damping in 2D. Damping is used to gradually slow down physical objects over time. RigidBodies will fall back to this value when combining their own damping values and no area damping value is present.
Suggested values are in the range [code]0[/code] to [code]30[/code]. At value [code]0[/code] objects will keep moving with the same velocity. Greater values will stop the object faster. A value equal to or greater than the physics tick rate ([member physics/common/physics_ticks_per_second]) will bring the object to a stop in one iteration.
[b]Note:[/b] Godot damping calculations are velocity-dependent, meaning bodies moving faster will take a longer time to come to rest. They do not simulate inertia, friction, or air resistance. Therefore heavier or larger bodies will lose speed at the same proportional rate as lighter or smaller bodies.
During each physics tick, Godot will multiply the linear velocity of RigidBodies by [code]1.0 - combined_damp / physics_ticks_per_second[/code]. By default, bodies combine damp factors: [code]combined_damp[/code] is the sum of the damp value of the body and this value or the area's value the body is in. See [enum RigidBody2D.DampMode].
[b]Warning:[/b] Godot's damping calculations are simulation tick rate dependent. Changing [member physics/common/physics_ticks_per_second] may significantly change the outcomes and feel of your simulation. This is true for the entire range of damping values greater than 0. To get back to a similar feel, you also need to change your damp values. This needed change is not proportional and differs from case to case.
