Physics Conveyor Properties
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Running | Boolean | When set to true, the conveyor will accelerate to match the TargetSpeed property. Otherwise, it will decelerate towards 0. |
| StartStopRequest | Boolean | Sets/gets the Running property. |
| TargetSpeed | Number | The speed that the conveyor is accelerating or decelerating towards, if running. |
| Reverse | Boolean | If true, the conveyor will be moving backwards when it is at its TargetSpeed |
| Products | Array | An array of all the products that are presently on this conveyor. Note that unlike standard conveyors, a product can be on multiple physics conveyors at once. |
| Acceleration | Number | The rate used to increase the speed towards the target speed over time. In project units (meters or feet) per second squared. If this is written to, AccelerationInSeconds will be updated appropriately. |
| Deceleration | Number | The rate used to decrease the speed towards zero when the conveyor isn’t running. In project units (meters or feet) per second squared. If this is written to, DecelerationInSeconds will be updated appropriately. |
| UseAccelerationInTimeMode | Boolean | New in V9.9. Default is true i.e ‘Use Time (in seconds)’. Controls what is displayed in the UI. If this is true, changing the target speed will change the Acceleration and Deceleration appropriately. If it’s false, changing the target speed will change the AccelerationInSeconds and DecelerationInSeconds properties appropriately. |
| AccelerationInSeconds | Number | New in V9.9. Gets/Sets the simple acceleration time in seconds to reach the target speed from zero. If this is written to, Acceleration will be set appropriately. |
| DecelerationInSeconds | Number | New in V9.9. Gets/Sets the simple deceleration time in seconds to reach zero from the target speed. If this is written to, Deceleration will be set appropriately. |
| PreviousConnection | Connection | Read only. The connection object of the source transport, if any. |
| NextConnection | Connection | Read only. The connection object of the destination transport, if any. |
| Length | Number | The length of the conveyor, in project units (meters or feet). |
| SurfaceColor | String | The color of the surface. Use the name, e.g. “Sym3 Red”. |
| BaseColor | String | The color of the base. Use the name, e.g. “Sym3 Red”. |
| LeftSidePanelColor | String | The color of the left side panel. Use the name, e.g. “Sym3 Red”. |
| RightSidePanelColor | String | The color of the right side panel. Use the name, e.g. “Sym3 Red”. |
| LineColor | String | The color of the lines on the surface. Use the name, e.g. “Sym3 Red”. |
| SurfaceVisible | Boolean | The visibility of the surface (does not include the lines). |
| BaseVisible | Boolean | The visibility of the base. |
| LeftSidePanelVisible | Boolean | The visibility of the left side panel. |
| LeftSidePanelHeight | Number | Default 0.3 meters. Height in project units (meters or feet) of the left side panel. |
| LeftSidePanelWidth | Number | Default 0.04 meters. Width in project units (meters or feet) of the left side panel. Note that only the inner side of a side panel collides with physics products. |
| RightSidePanelHeight | Number | Default 0.3 meters. Height in project units (meters or feet) of the right side panel. |
| RightSidePanelWidth | Number | Default 0.04 meters. Width in project units (meters or feet) of the right side panel. Note that only the inner side of a side panel collides with physics products. |
| RightSidePanelVisible | Boolean | The visibility of the right side panel. |
| LineVisible | Boolean | The visibility of the lines on the surface of the conveyor. |
| EncoderEnabled | Boolean | New in V9.8. If set to true, the DistanceTravelled property will be calculated by the transporter. |
| DistanceTravelled | Number | New in V9.8. Gets the distance travelled by the transporter since the start of the simulation, measured in millimeters for metric(meters) and inches for imperial(feet) units |
| MaxDistanceTravelled | Number | New in V9.8. Gets/Sets the max value for DistanceTravelled by the transporter in the currently defined system units. When transporter reaches the max value, the distance travelled counter will restart from 0 |
| Friction | Number | New in V9.8. Gets/Sets the friction value of the conveyor. See the equipment documentation for more details. |
