electricField()

Creates a field node that applies an electrical force proportional to the electrical charge of physics bodies.

Declaration

class func electricField() -> SKFieldNode

Return Value

A new electric field node.

Discussion

The force points toward the field node’s position and has a magnitude proportional to the field’s strength property and the physics body’s charge property. This field models the first part of the Lorentz equation:

F = qE

Where F equals force, q equals charge, and E equals electric field.

The falloff property of an electrical field node is set by default to 2.
