How can I implement realistic physics in my C++ game?

To implement realistic physics, you can use a physics engine like Box2D or Bullet Physics. They provide robust tools for simulating real-world physics.

What are the key features I should look for in a physics engine?

Key features include collision detection, rigid body dynamics, soft body physics, and support for constraints and joints.

Can you give me an example of how to set up Box2D in my project?

Sure! First, include the Box2D headers in your project. Then, create a world object and define gravity. Here's a simple setup:

b2Vec2 gravity(0.0f, -9.8f);
b2World world(gravity);

How do I handle collisions between objects?

You can handle collisions by implementing the b2ContactListener interface. This allows you to respond to collision events in your game.
